Listen to CNN and you would think this state was a strong Republican state and the democrat is the underdog. They are claiming a Republican loss would spell trouble for Republicans in the mid terms. It is amazing to hear the disdain for Trump in their reporting...

If the DemocratS win, it will be an endorsement of gun control.

Are there provisions for recounts in VA, anyone know? And, if so, what they involve?

Wishful thinking on his part.

My polling place had no line this morning, most unusual even for an off year election, and that was before the cold, cold ran started.

Just heard CBS radio report the is a “massive latino turnout” and Northam is expected to cruise to a 5 to 8 point victory. You know just like the missive latino turnout in FL was going give Hillary an easy win in FL.

Let’s wait for the raw vote count.

Fake news outlets usually don’t wait to declare a D win.

Said the same thing about John F*ckin’ in 2004.

He was the expected winner.

If NOVA comes in big, Northam should win by + 4.

Its early now and NOVA comes in last with its returns.
