Democrats always win the close ones. They know how to "find" a few extra votes when they need them.

Another stolen election. I never thought I would ever see this happen in the Commonwealth. Virginia is now dead to me.

Somebody ran out to the Prius and ‘found’ a box with a couple hundred ballots.

The Clinton M.O. Slick Willie realized the power one could enable to the governor (or president) via the attorney general.

Wow, what an ironic name to steal an election.

A “Red” Herring, no doubt.

“The Clinton M.O. Slick Willie realized the power one could enable to the governor (or president) via the attorney general. “

This is why the rats took down Bush’s AG’s. With them under fire and preoccupied, the rats can run roughshod over government with no oversight.

And when the rats are in power, the AG is the gatekeeper.

Does the Republican have the guts to go at this with both barrels?

damn right start a recount, yet again we see the left just get enough votes to win another election.
MN, FL, VA, WI.

165 votes the GOP had better fight this and we all know that the state now will be going to the Dems for Clinton so the question is where does the GOP pick up any other states? I see none so another 8 years of left wing politics, attacks, censorship and socialism

Just noticed your tag line. To which I must respond.... ROLL TIDE! I guess we'll both be glued to that game. Do you have any idea what the current stat is for wins/losses against each other? I graduated in 1980 and haven't really kept up with those. Although, when I was there we did have back to back national championships in '78 & '79. Now they're going for a three-pete.

The Old Dominion is no longer. Virginia, once a beacon to all of America, is now the Canary in the Coal mine.

The elite Republican establishment in Virginia wouldn’t soil their car trunks with ballot boxes.

Another Al Frankenstein or Christine Gregoire all over again. When will the GOP fight these election crimes? Oh no, must play nice since they want the media to LOVE THEM.
