IF Ken pulls this out
Goochland County may tell why this is close.
Turnout was slightly higher. Ken got 14% less than McDonnell (70 vrs 56 which was the same as Kilgore). McCauliffe, however, got only 33%, not the 43% Kaine got. This is one place the “Sarvis” factor seems to have hurt McCauliffe even though Cucinelli’s vote numbers/percentages are down. Interesting.
100% correct. That county hurt McAuliffe bad.
Never did I ever imagine hearing someone comment on Goochland County on the internet. Do you have any report from Louisa County? What about Short Pump? Was there a big turnout in Short Pump?
67.89% IN
649,924 47.52% (R)
618,513 45.22% (D)
I suspect this is the area where the vote would start to turn, it appears that way.
Fairfax County is on its way to 250,000 votes. If that holds.
Ken gets about 92,000 McCauliffe gets 143,000, a difference of 51,000 votes. 19,000 of that lead is already accounted for in the totals. It appears he can close the gap with Fairfax alone, and now the rest of the state is a wash, but if any other liberal stronghold is out, it’s over.
Thanks....love tidbits like that.
