UPDATE 9:36 pm: Julie Carey tweets, "JUST IN: UNOFFICIAL on #FairfaxCo provisionals. Herring 156, Obenshain 100 and 7 ballots left to handcount." And with that, MARK HERRING WILL SHORTLY BE CERTIFIED AS THE WINNER OF THE VIRGINIA ATTORNEY GENERAL'S RACE! Woo-hoo!
UPDATE 9:39 pm: @amaxsmith tweets," Hand count. +2 Herring in 11th. +2 Herring in 10th; +3 obenshain." @jeisrael of ThinkProgress tweets, "With Herring winning hand counts 4 to 3, Herring gains 57 in Fairfax and wins by 163 votes out of 2M+"

(20,176 posts)I'm going to go check the local 24-hour newschannel to see if they're broadcasting/covering it. (Seems not.)
Yes, DC has a 24-hour TV newschannel (run by the local ABC affiliate as News8) and a 24-hour radio newschannel (WTOP)...and they're not the same people.

It is quite unusual that all 22 provisional ballots in Montgomery Co. (Blacksburg) were counted. #VAAG https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjYj9mXElO_QdE5taVNVWV9WQlJsSVRaXzFrNjkzY0E&usp=drive_web#gid=0

A summary:
Public meeting of Fairfax Board of Elections to count provisional ballots has begun. 271 provisionals accepted, 218 rejected. All 3-0 unanimous decisions on accepted, 1 ballot 2-1 among rejected. GOP lawyer objects on equal protection grounds. Board dismisses objection. 271 accepted count approved 3-0. Now reading # of ballots rejected into the record. Count will commence momentarily. Should go until close to midnight.
