Anchorage, AK, United States (AHN) - Election officials in Alaska began counting write-in ballots Tuesday, a process expected to be followed by legal challenges. Republican candidate Joe Miller believes he will prevail against Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who makes history if she wins her write-in candidacy.
 
 Miller, a Tea Party candidate who unexpectedly defeated Murkowski in the GOP primary, had 34 percent when votes except for absentee and write-in ballots were tallied last week. Democrat Scott McAdams, who has conceded the race, trailed with 24 percent.
 
 The bulk of votes, 41 percent or 83,201, are write-in ballots that Murkowski believes are votes for her. The ballots are being counted together with absentee ballots.
 
 "We're cautiously optimistic," Miller, who in the final weeks of the race admitted to ethics violations while he was a government lawyer, said on CNN on Monday. "There are 37,000 absentee ballots that have not yet been counted. We believe that those will run strongly in our favor."
 
 "Not only that, in the past write-in campaign that was had here in Alaska 1998, almost eight percent of the ballots were disqualified," he added. "So when you add the numbers from the absentees, from those ballots that are going to be counted on the write-ins, we are right in there."
 
 The tallying is expected to take two to three days. Both Miller and Murkowski have assembled legal teams and begun legal funds to defend their votes. Lt. Gov. Craig Campbell has made clear that any write-in ballots "cast properly" for Miller will be counted.
 
 "We want to assure that the public has accurate information regarding the process," Campbell said. "All decisions made are based on state statute and vetted through the Alaska Department of Law.”
 
 Victory for Murkowski won't change the makeup of the Senate, which Democrats still narrowly control after last week's elections. But a win will add to the mixed bag of results Tea Party candidates had in their first electoral test despite continuing distrust with incumbents.
 
 Re-election would also make Murkowski, a moderate blasted by conservatives as a Republican in name only who inherited her seat from her father, the first to win a Senate write-in campaign since Strom Thurmond in 1954.

LAW. ANY USE OF THE WORK OTHER THAN AS AUTHORIZED UNDER THIS LICENSE OR COPYRIGHT LAW IS PROHIBITED.
BY EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS TO THE WORK PROVIDED HERE, YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. TO THE EXTENT THIS LICENSE
MAY BE CONSIDERED TO BE A CONTRACT, THE LICENSOR GRANTS YOU THE RIGHTS CONTAINED HERE IN CONSIDERATION OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH TERMS AND
CONDITIONS.
1. Definitions
	
"Collective Work" means a work, such as a periodical issue, anthology or encyclopedia, in which the Work in its entirety in

	License.
	
"Derivative Work" means a work based upon the Work or upon the Work and other pre-existing works, such as a translation,
	musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any
	other form in which the Work may be recast, transformed, or adapted, except that a work that constitutes a Collective Work will not be considered a
	Derivative Work for the purpose of this License. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Work is a musical composition or sound recording, the
	synchronization of the Work in timed-relation with a moving image ("synching") will be considered a Derivative Work for the purpose of this License.
