The Associated Press has declared incumbent Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell the victor in his race for a second term. His opponent was Republican Lynn Swann, a political novice and pro football Hall of Famer. Rendell had been heavily favored in recent polls. The AP called the race based on "a statistical analysis of the vote from voter interviews conducted for The Associated Press by Edison Media Research and Mitofsky International."
