9. Spelling is the second thing to go!

[Bluebear]

2. Another Webb downer thread? What's gotten into you b?

[AZCat]

3. "Reserved"? Do you mean "reversed"?

Or was that a "heh" remark?

[Ioo]

4. oh shit?

[Massacure]

5. Excuse me while I go jump off a cliff and die!

I just can't take the suspense of the night anymore!

[keopeli]

6. Are you sure they're reserved?

I just saw the same thing. The sites, which are unofficial, are backward to what CNN is reporting. Something's up somewhere.

This is too weird... who is right????

[Poiuyt]

[JMDEM]

16. I calculate 20,000 votes still to be counted

And that doesn't include absentees. What's going on with those? To be counted? Already counted? Some already counted?

[Lex]

17. That's not good, right?

[blitzen]

18. the VA site says right at the top that it is NOT official

21. CNN has updated their numbers and says Webb has INCREASED his lead....

... to a lil over 3,000 votes.

EDIT: My bad - not my night for arithmetic. Over 2,000 vote lead for Web, but not 3,000. Sorry. My main point was that I don't think the fuck up is on CNN's side, cuz they've changed the numbers, and didn't change the who's-in-the-lead part of it. Seems like that woulda been the perfect opportunity to correct the mistake, if mistake it was.

[question everything]

22. WSJ has Webb in the lead
