Results of the third ballot in the contest for Republican National Committee chairman:

Michael Steele -- 51 (up 3 from the second ballot)
Mike Duncan -- 44 (down 4)
Katon Dawson -- 34 (up 5)
Saul Anuzis -- 24 (no change)
Ken Blackwell -- 15 (down 4)

Steele just walked by and gave a thumbs up. Asked what he needs to do to get to the magic number of 85, he said, "That's the big question."

Do we ask probing questions here or what??
