If fairfax continues reporting as it has
Cucinelli will lose 836,000 to 822,000
I hope Im wrong
That is a close nuber for McAuliffe. He has 40,000 votes to go in Fairfax, Norfolk and Richmond. Don’t know Where Cucc gets his votes.
Recount
I think you have it just about right. The effin GOP lost this race.
I predict he loses by 40K votes, which is just over 2%. I think the result was baked in when the shutdown occurred. Outside of the DC area, nobody cared. But anyone who worked in DC had his life disrupted by the shutdown. I bet enough were inconvenienced to either vote D or stay home. The small margin of the defeat is heartening. If the D's could only manage a 2% victory after the shutdown, despite outspending the R's 2 to 1, going up against an uncharismatic candidate in the midst of a corruption scandal, and being in the heart of the region affected negatively by the shutdown, things do not look good for the D's in 2014.
