OWENS SAYS HE STILL EXPECTS A THREE-WAY RACE TO KEEP SEAT--Democratic 23rd Congressional District incumbent Bill Owens says despite the results of last week's GOP primary between Matt Doheny and Doug Hoffman, he plans to be competing with both--Doheny on the Independence line and Hoffman as a Conservative. Doheny remains the apparent victor in the primary, however his margin slimmed last week with data coming in from unreported Oneida County districts. Absentees have yet to be counted; Hoffman will not concede until then--and with a margin of less than 600 votes he may not have to.
