[Bush gal in LA]

Just got back from voting. I hope some of Arnolds stuff makes it through! I for one would get sick if we get MEATHEAD or Warren '' the idiot'' Beatty for Governor. I could not stomach that!

[rushmom]

What does that tell us?

what a crock !!!! I didn't leave my screen till I got the final page that showed the # vote I had cast and otherwise indicated my vote had been counted. I verified that by calling a Poll Official .. and if the D's didn't take time to do it right,it's their bad. (tho I think their stories about votes not being counted are just a lie)

[commonguymd]

big democratic county must have come in.

[hispanichoosier]

Since you live in the Commonwealth, I just have to ask: What's up with Russell County voting 60/40 FOR Warner in '01 & breaking 53/45 for Bush in '04? Is it a major swing county?

[eureka!]

marking (although it will be over 2000 replies by the time California stops voting-Go Kilgore Go Forrester)...

[Dane]

Now I'm getting a bad feeling that Kaine will win. Kilgore feel big time with those new votes while the republicans for Lt. Governor and AG held steady

Results will bounce around, depends where the returns are coming from.

[GOPGuide]

Kilgore is 4 points behind McDonnell, so this could be tight.

[Bonaventure]

It is too early to tell what's happening, but these early returns aren't bad for Kaine.

[EDINVA]

what part of the state are these #'s from ?

[johnmecainrino]

Kilgore is running way behind the down ticket candidates.

14 points behind the lt governor and 6 points behind attorney general position. At least we have one winner tonight in the Lt governor position. His numbers are solid and is a lock win.

[GOPGuide]

Big jump for Kilgore! Is this for real or was their a counting error?

[traderrob6]

Not sure although Kilgore is running 6% ahead of Bush in Rappahannock cty with 58%

[EDINVA]

"At least we have one winner tonight in the Lt governor position."

hope everyone understands that if that is the worst case reality, we should celebrate NOT getting Byrne !

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

I tend to agree with Brian Whitman regarding Mr. Beatty's seeming fixation with The Governator.

Why doesn't he just get a restraining order?!

Seriously, something's up with that guy.

:0)

[InsureAmerica]

a 'lock win' with less than 3% of the vote in????
