3. recount will happen

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

4. No, That's Within Recount

It has to be about 11,800 difference to avoid a recount.

5. No ...

Need over 1% to prevent automatic recount. There will be one anyway. Allen would be stupid not to call for it.

6. From what I understand:

If the election is within .5%, Virginia will pay for a recount if Allen asks for it (he will). If the margin is more than .5%, Allen has to fund it himself (he still probably will).

Look for a recount, but I doubt the results will go in Allen's favor.
