One good thing about a recount is that I understand that Fairfax has paper ballots. Here in the Richmond area, we used electronic machines.
Recount is also gonna happen in the AK/CO gubernatorial races.
They are that close.
Gillespie Somehow Lost 5657-98 in Precincts Where He Received 9 or Fewer Votes

Recount occurs Nov 6-12.
Are they going to comb out all the felons who voted and those who voted twice, once in Maryland and once in Virginia ?
WHO DOES THE ‘RECOUNTING’?............
The election was the typical scenario.
The republican gets ahead in nearly all of the counties, and a handful of dem stronghold counties wait and see how many votes they need, and late at night they gradually report and the dems win by a few thousand votes.
Happened with Allen, Cuccinelli, and Gillespie last night. I believe I’m forgetting a couple. I believe they might have been a little blindsided last night, and wasn’t ready for it to be that close.
Frankly, I was VERY surprised by it myself. Gillespie ran virtually no campaign at all from what I could tell. I never saw the first Television add supporting him, only a couple of signs. I saw lots of adds trashing Gillespie. If the GOP would have spent a little money, he probably would have won. (just as with Cuccinelli)
If he’s within .5% in the official vote, which takes about a week, then the recount is free. If he’s not that close a recount won’t help.
The unofficial vote presently has him over .5% behind but that could change.
What a race!
OK folks. Here is a question for all: Anyone who knows please respond.
I don’t get why about 5% of the VA vote is still outstanding and not counted. What areas or counties are they from?
I live in CA and I think we now have 100% of our vote reporting. Why is VA holding back and taking so long?
I heard the leftist idiot Bob Beckel admit to a crime last night on Fox. They were talking about late results from Fairfax county and he said when he was involved there they always held back ballots. You could hear the other hosts gasp and then stare at him. There was an awkward pause and then everyone moved on.
I expect a bunch of missing rat ballots to show up if it gets too close.
Thanks for starting this thread. It is a great idea.
Terry McAwful is Governor. The only way Gillespie wins is if somehow that’s the outcome the Clintons want. I don’t see that happening.
Hopefully Gillespie is lawyered up.
Let the games begin.
Any news? Is there someplace to see the totals?
How come Virginia has so many elections where the Republican is denied by such a small margin? I lived in Virginia in 2010 when Keith Fimian was defeated by Jerry Connelly by just 500 votes! The state would have paid for the recount but Fimian was the gentleman and refused their offer. Then last year the Governors race where Cuccinelli lost by just 2% of the vote. I hope there is a recount and/or investigation into any anomalies.
Maybe FRAUD VOTES become very expensive the second time around and are hard to hide...
