Webb is sinking like a stone in VA!!!

[JMDEM]

As the votes roll in -- now at 52%, Webb is sinking like a stone! Allen up by 3% and climbing rapidly. This is insane!!!! This is 2004 all over again!!!!

[Skinner]

1. Chill out.

It's still early.

[CPschem]

2. relax

n/t

[Ignacio Upton]

3. It's only 52%

I don't think the major urban areas have been counted yet.

[pissedoffprogressive]

4. Something smells

:kick:

[JMDEM]

5. Something fucking stinks

[karlrschneider]

9. Results are from rural southern VA precincts. Take a pill.

:D

[LostinVA]

34. No, it doesn't, not yet -- it's going pretty good

[Beelzebud]

6. Relax, we have not lost this one yet.

[revree]

7. Could be the rural votes...

my liberal friend in Virginia says there are lots of us there but we gotta be honest, there are a lot of racist, rednecks in VA...and they won't let no dirty liberal win...but it's early...hold out hope!!!

[liberaldemocrat7]

26. Webb does not appear a liberal.

Perhaps Johnny Reb considers an ex Republican moderate as a liberal.

[Mr_Spock]

This sucks big time!

But the others are going the right way!!

[DougieZero]

8. Conservatives came out

Allen is a conservative superstar.

[AspenRose]

10. No VA hasn't reported yet.

Patience.

[SeattleGirl]

11. Take a breath. It's early.

I don't think being up by 3% so early in the evening is equivalent to Webb "sinking like a stone."

[SaveElmer]

12. It's gonna be closer than that...but it doesn't look good for Webb :-(

[Recursion]

13. Chill...

NoVa and the far Shenandoah haven't reported yet; those are where the Webb voters are.

[SaveElmer]

17. 75% of Fairfax is in..>Arlington still at 0...don't know if that is enough!

[Virginia Dare]

24. Loudoun and Prince William haven't come in yet...

Webb slightly ahead in Loudoun, Allen slightly ahead in Prince William with only 3% counted. These were two counties that put Kaine over the edge.

[LostinVA]

37. CHarlottesville isn't in, nor Metro Richmond, or Hampton Roads

Nor most of NOVA.

Jesus.

[dogindia]

14. rover buttons?

[KoKo]

31. maybe "Rover Buttons." n/t

[Atman]

15. Northern Virginia votes much more DEM than south, and south reports first

So relax...relax...

oooohhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

.

[smoogatz]

16. The big Northern VA suburbs aren't in yet--

they'll be the last ones counted (more voters, more precincts), and they'll determine the outcome. Webb should do well there, so if he keeps it close in the rural parts of the state, that's good news.

[Pushed To The Left]

18. Even if we don't win control of the Senate

it looks like we will still pick up some Senate seats tonight, which will make it harder for Bush's extremist judicial nominees to get confirmed. Still, it would be pretty sweet if we got control of the Senate as well! It's not over yet..

[Catherine Vincent]

19. Geeze.

LOL!

[JMDEM]

20. Okay -- a bit more in the right direction. 57% Webb within 1.5%

[Junkdrawer]

21. If there's going to be outright fraud in 2006, this is the state....n/t

[feduppuke]

25. ?

Where does one find out where these votes came from? Everyone is claiming that they are from one section or another of the Commonwealth, but the SBE site says that there is no way to know.

[Junkdrawer]

29. Here

40. Excellent

Thank you!

[feistydem]

22. Democracy is messy. Have a beer and relax.

[JMDEM]

23. Sorry you all -- but I despise Allen so I have a lot of emotion in this one

Allen is so disgusting.

And I DO hope strongly we take the Senate to ward off any more SC nominations.

[flowomo]

30. Fox said "too close to call" 10 seconds ago.... chill

35. EXCUSE ME.

When I first posted this, Webb took three consecutive hits to drop from a 1% lead to a 3% loss. I was freaking out. Sorry I mentioned it.

[TahitiNut]

28. Watch Fairfax, Norfolk, and Richmond - the fat lady ain't singing yet/

[LittleClarkie]

32. 50.1 vs 48.8

It's doable.

I wouldn't mind seeing my original home state doing the right thing. That would be cool.

[LostinVA]

33. Knock it off -- You're 100% WRONG

He's down by about 1.17% right now, with the huge majority of the urban votes not in.

What are you trying to do?

[Mr_Spock]

36. Let's hope he can make up the difference

:-)

[IChing]

41. You are right still too early......relax

Virginia have some voting irregularities contested by lawyers

[JMDEM]

39. As I said before -- when I posted this

He was dropping rapidly. This post didn't get made 2 minutes ago.

I am very happy to see he is climbing. If an admin wants to change the title, please do so. In fact, PLEASE do so so that nobody here accuses me of being a freeper anymore.

[kwolf68]

38. I said it earlier today...

I expect Webb to lose...he'll keep it close, but he'll lose. This is freaking Virginia...unless we get 95% turnout in Nortern Virginia, some areas of the coast, and Richmond we can't beat the neo-Confederates that live here. If Webb wins, it will be a major miracle.

I think Ford in TN will lose as well....Not doom and gloom, just trying to be objective.

[mondo joe]

42. If Allen wins the dems can use him as the face of the GOP.

His shit might fly in some states, but it'll be poison in others.

[JMDEM]

43. Does anyone know Virginia?

I'm getting my info from the VA official website: http://sbe.virginiainteractive.org/index.htm

Now, they list the precincts that have come in. But I don't know what those are, or which areas haven't reported. Can someone lend a hand here? Any Virginians out there?

[Moloch]

44. Most of Fairfax is in....

Richmond city and Arlington country have a lot of (dem) votes that haven't been counted yet.

fuck........ i'm getting anxious about this one.

[LostinVA]

46. Charlottesville, Hampton Roads, Loudon, alot of NOVA not in

Allen may take it, but he'll fight for it until the very end.

[LostinVA]

47. ZERO of Fairfax City is in

[JMDEM]

45. I'm mad because I guess I got sucked in by those "early exit polls" again

They show Webb is supposed to win by 5%. He's down by 2%. It's bringing up the shock of 2004 all over again for me.

So -- are the exit polls completely bogus, or are we getting ripped off right in front of our eyes in VA?

[RoyGBiv]

48. SERENITY NOW!!!!

Ahem ... sorry. :-)

As others have noted, NVA will be reporting later than the southern and rural districts. Chill. We all knew this was going to be very, very close. We may well not know the winner until tomorrow.
