You've been hoping for this all damn night! If it's that close, Allen will contest it. Sheesh....

The Washington Post has these numbers for the Virginia Senate race:

Va. U.S. Senate Results (KEY RACE)
Candidate Votes %
George Allen * (R) 1,133,550 50%
Jim Webb (D) 1,127,537 49%
Glenda Parker (IG) 25,269 1%
Key: * Incumbent | Winner
Precincts: 98% | Updated: 11:42 PM ET | Source: AP


That puts Sen. Allen up by 6,000.

Allen is fine. He will end up about 1500-3000 ahead, and there are still 100,000-150,000 absentee Ballots to count --those will go in Allen's favor and he will end up 5000-10000 ahead.

Webb will ask for a recount , and it will get Ugly, but that is too many votes for the Dems to Manufacture.

Corker looks to be in Great Shape in Tenn.

Steele still has an outsaide chance, and Burns also has a shot.

Worst case it is 51-47-2.

I'm afraid you are right ... Allen percentage needed to win trend is going the wrong way - up to 47% from 44% as the votes to go went from 62,000 to 53,000. The big city votes must be rolling in. Allen needs to get just over 47% of the rest of the votes to win.
