With 3 pricincts out, the democrats has stolen the election.

Those last three precincts went GOP and put Obenshain over the top. He won it by 219 votes.

If this is true and the republican keeps the office of AG, McAwful’s days as governor will be miserable. Lord, I pray that this is true and that the demoncrat does not steal a recount. Amen.

This means that the Commonwealth AG can continue to file suit against ObamaCare, and there’s not a damn thing that Gov. McAuliffe can do about it.

per AP Obenshain is +286 votes, Virginia election page has it +491 votes

I would of bet against the good guy being ahead after seeing those final 10 precincts left were Prince William and Norfolk City but Obenshain was well ahead of the 2012 Romney pace.

Mcdonnell won in the AG in 2005 by 300 votes and became Governor so hopefully Obenshain in 2017.

The question now is whether or not Herring will request a recount. The margin of victory likely falls within whatever requirements exist.

Herring will request, will be granted, and will subsequently lose a recount.

This could go on for awhile as they are "adjusting" totals around the state. 2 of the 3 I found favor the good guy. Dave Wasserman ‏@Redistrict 2m In Lunenberg County (Southside), VA SBE just added 64 votes for Obenshain (R), 92 for Herring (D). Dave Wasserman ‏@Redistrict 13m SBE just added another 20 votes for Obenshain (R) in Carroll Co., 15 in Patrick Co. Zero for Herring. Dave Wasserman ‏@Redistrict 31m Virginia's SBE reports 255 additional Russell County votes for Obenshain (R), only 126 for Herring (D). Hill getting steeper for Herring.

I'm also curious why you and others would want to use "Alinsky" tactics?

We are fighting to save our Republic from literal destruction.

Our Founders would call us wimps for being so passive.

We must use all non-violent means to bring down the GOPe. They are pure Statists.

ALL Conservatives need to view the GOPe as a true enemy.

Anyone who sees the cold reality of the Marxist left and GOPe pushing our Republic toward rabid Statism, then going Alinksy is quite reasonable.

We are beyond The Marquess of Queensberry rules of politics.

He seems to be actively engaged, if one can judge by his posts on Facebook. I just hope he doesn’t let his guard down. Never underestimate cute pink tennis shoes!

Obenshein leads by 958 votes now.

The margin was about 1,100 with 7 precincts left and Herring cut into the lead and went ahead by around 600 votes but the last precincts have given Obenshein the lead back.

Provisionals and absentees being counted are changing the totals slightly but seems to be in favor of Obenshein.

That last precinct has been in now for hours. But they keep counting, over and over and over. Trying any tactic to get the marxist in the lead. When that happens he’ll call a press conference and say he’s won the race. The counting will not end till he’s in the lead. Mark it down. We all know how these crooked bastards work. They never give up. They will find a way to win it. Only way to beat these crooks is to win by 10 or more percentage points and there be no doubt who the winner is. In a close race they will rig the election. It’s worked for democrats for years.

Exactly what I’m thinking I’m just waiting for it to happen.

I can’t tell if they are counting absentees and provisionals or canvassing for votes or possibly the elections page numbers are being changed to accurately reflect what all the counties final numbers are.

Most of my reading on the left sites are blaming the voter purge of around 40k dead people that happened prior to the election and also saying that Fairfax Co. will come in big with absentees because of the reported absentees in Fairfax Co. they are at a 17% from 09 compared to other counties at 50%+

Hope I’m wrong, but I don’t trust any democrat. They are all as crooked as a snake.

Buckingham,Halifax, Tazewell have adjusting and Obenshain gains a little more..up to 1,157 lead.

Some conflicting reports on whether 2k-3k Fairfax Co. absentees have been taken into account with these numbers.
Even if they haven’t Herring wouldn’t net more than 400-500 there.
