[Thrill]

3. DAMN LOOKS LIKE THEY JUST CAN'T GET RID

OF THAT SCUM

[beachmom]

5. I made an error -- that was Virginia Beach only n.t

[bluedeminredstate]

4. I won't believe it

if the republic party pulls this off. The negative ads against Webb over the last week have been nonstop. I thought that would turn people off.

I'm holding my breath for a big number increase for Webb when Fairfax and Arlington come in...

:woohoo:

[geek tragedy]

9. Fairfax and Arlington are 90% in. Looks like it's over. eom

[bluedeminredstate]

17. I just saw that

I'm still not giving up yet.

Macaca'a balls! This is not good.

[LostinVA]

18. Nope -- almost all votes our are in blue areas

[davidwparker]

60. still not in.

[cobaindrain]

G F Allen Republican 1,025,262 50.05%
J H Webb Jr Democratic 998,701 48.75%
G G Parker Independent Green 22,715 1.11%

[beachmom]

13. Where did you get that? My screen is only 86.66% reporting

[davidwparker]

10. Not all of Arlington or Fairfax County is in yet.

My area, Suffolk, is in and it is amazingly divided. Suffolk held its own for Webb.

[cobaindrain]

16. Is Parker an Independent or a Green?

at 1.1%...

Just sayin'

[davidwparker]

41. I don't think so. Green is confusing me. I went to her website and

she doesn't seem to be. It has both independent and green.

[davidwparker]

14. Sure could use the Green candidate's 23K votes right now.

[The Jacobin]

22. Same losers that voted for Nader

I said fuck 'em then and I say fuck 'em now.

[beachmom]

28. No, she didn't attract liberal votes. She's a conservative green.

[davidwparker]

43. That confused me. I thought Green was liberal.

My bad.

[bluedeminredstate]

15. Here's the whole state

http://sbe.virginiainteractive.org/

[sabbat hunter]

20. if vote percentage

remains true to what it is right now, there will be an automatic recount in VA

[davidwparker]

19. Not all of Richmond is in and Webb has a big lead there.

[LostinVA]

21. self delete

[Monty_]

23. Seriously?

Webb is ahead?

[The Jacobin]

25. no 19 k down

[Catchawave]

30. Probably here:

http://sbe.virginiainteractive.org/index.htm

We had the marriage amendment on the ballot too, the homophobes came out in droves :cry:

[dr.strangelove]

31. link

http://sbe.virginiainteractive.org/index.htm

[EndElectoral]

33. Webb might gain ,but is it enough

Loudoin county still has precints and Webb has slight lead there
Prince Wm Country still has precints and Webb has slight lead there
Newport News still has precints and Webb has slight lead there
Richmond City still has 22 precincts to rport and Webb has big
lead there
Va Beach went for Allen - SOB, WTF is wrong with them

[EndElectoral]

36. Do these results include absentee ballots?

[TheDonkey]

29. CNN saying that Richmond has not reported very Kerry heavy

so it's looking spooky but not over.

[LostinVA]

34. Richmond is VERY "Webb Heavy" -- WTF are they talking about?

[dr.strangelove]

35. Richmond has not yet reported

and it is leaning heavily to Webb, meaning the lost popular county may be enough for Webb to overcome the 20,000 deficit.

[TheDonkey]

65. it went for Kerry bigtime. Democrat stronghold

but will it be ENOUGH! I HOPE

[wholetruth00]

32. We still have hope for VA. Huge formerly blue precint has not reported.

[Monty_]

37. MSNBC

MSNBC reports half of Arlington not in yet

[EndElectoral]

38. Do these results include absentee ballots?

[Catchawave]

39. Good question..

[EndElectoral]

42. Damn GReen candidate

[davidwparker]

46. That's a conservative green. it was just pointed out. I always thought

Green was liberal.

[The Jacobin]

45. Probably not

Absentee ballots are usually just kept in reserve and then opened and counted late in the evening (early in the morning) if needed in a close race.

% went from 93.21 to 93.66, and with it, a gain.

Will it be enough?

[requiem99]

[BootinUp]

75. Theres about 65000 votes to tally, we are 11,300 behind.

:(

[michreject]

76. Automatic recount

1% margin of victory. Will take a month.

[EndElectoral]

77. Almost EVERY remaining locality precinct not reporting looks to favor Webb. We'll see

[k_jerome]

78. c'mon Richmond and Norfolk. nt.

[budkin]

79. We got this shit baby!

This is the one that I'm gonna pop the cork over!

[survivor999]

101. Still a lot of votes to be counted in Richmod

And that seems way blue...

[BootinUp]

80. Fuckin Macacca...noooooooo!

O8)

[EndElectoral]

81. Wh yare there only 34K votes from Richmond City? and 120K from Va. Beach city

Isn't Richmond city much larger?

[Lefty48197]

82. Time is getting short. We need to gains some votes fast!

95.66% of precincts reporting: Allen 1,097,708 - Webb 1,083,988. 13,800 vote difference. We need to make up some ground here. Hopefully, it's OUR precincts that haven't reported yet.

[EndElectoral]

83. What the hell is Rove doing in Richmond?????

[troublemaker]

84. Where is Craig County. It's at 0%.

[EndElectoral]

87. Craig County only has a total population of 5,091. Key is Richmond. nmumbers there shoud be bigger

[k_jerome]

88. click on details for Craig. Looks like already reported, but...

not showing up???

[troublemaker]

91. Good. That means Prince William, Loudon and Richmond City plus

absentees(??) from Fairfax and Arlington. (I am guessing that when 69 of 70 precints are reported that the 70th precint is the absentees, but I don't know that)

[k_jerome]

92. Norfolk and Newport News have some pre. yet to report as well. nt.

[troublemaker]

95. Yes -- Newport News city has 10+ precincts to go

[Clarkie1]

85. 0.5% Damn it! nt

[k_jerome]

86. 25% of Richmond is still out...10% of Norfolk... nt.

[BootinUp]

89. I don't see it happening. Fuck.

[troublemaker]

93. No, it's scary close. The outstanding precincts are pretty good... this may well be within 4K

[Sparkly]

96. Compare the precincts that haven't reported yet, Jim!

http://sbe.virginiainteractive.org/nov2006/l_02.htm

It's still possible -- but it looks like it'll go to a recount.

[EndElectoral]

90. 91 precincts to go and still down 12.5K. Where is Richmond?

These late counties should be going strongly for Webb looking at their previous voting patterns?

[pinkpops]

94. My calculations say

as of 10:20 or so (central) there are still about 10 times tne number of votes out there than the current margin.

[survivor999]

97. They may have to get a recount

WIth that margin... ANyone remember what they use for voting in VA?

[k_jerome]

98. Bring 'em in Richmond!! nt.

[survivor999]

102. Yup, that is big and blue

and only 67% counted

[JeffSanchez]

99. Precincts Reporting: 2380 of 2443 (97.42%)

Closing hard and fast! C'mon Webb!

[k_jerome]

100. still a lot of Prince William out too. nt.

[Clarkie1]

103. Does anyone know about the absentee ballots?

Have they been counted? How many? Is it true they are mostly from NoVA and likely to trend Dem?

I'm hoping for a no, many, and yes answer!

[civildisoBDence]

104. Webb within 3000!

97.67% reporting.

Newsprism

[Clarkie1]

105. 0.14%! nt

[civildisoBDence]

122. Webb within 1800 with 99% reporting...holy shit

Down to the wire.

1% of the votes is over 22,000 votes...

Newsprism

[cobaindrain]

106. Down to 3,000 votes in Virginia!

[requiem99]

107. SO CLOSE. MUST HAVE A RECOUNT OF THIS!

[Clarkie1]

108. Either way it goes tonight, there is no doubt of that. nt

[bufffbison]

109. webb is up by 3k in va according to cnn nt

[Clarkie1]

111. See for yourself...

[davidwparker]

110. Richmond not in - 0.1% diff if my eyes still see correctly

[Clarkie1]

113. Talk to me about Richmond....please tell me it is a big Dem town. nt

[k_jerome]

114. 70%+

[Clarkie1]

117. bounce

:bounce:

:-)

[davidwparker]

121. Yes, it is a big Dem town. A few districts not yet reported. Fairfax too.

[Barack_America]

112. Take a look at the "Locality" link

And look at where the outstanding precincts are. The VAST majority of outstanding votes are in areas that voted overwhelmingly for Webb. IMO, Virginia will actually go to Webb (but will be within 1%, so there will be a recount.

Wolf Blitzer is just agreeing with me...ha!

[Clarkie1]

115. THANK YOU!

Recount or not, I'm putting my party hat on....onward to Missouri. Go Claire!

:party:

[Sparkly]

118. Waiting mostly for Prince William Cty, I think? nt
