The Democrat was up one vote for a seat representing an era in Hampton Roads in VA's lower house. Then a vote for the D was tossed out so one has a tie. This is huge because if the D draws the correct lot the VA lower house will be exactly evenly split. The GOP needs to make sure if the D is drawing the winning paper is not placed in a freezer before the draw, a la, NBA draft lottery when the Knicks won the top pick to draft Patrick Ewing.

Is that procedure written into their constitution? :)

[DoughtyOne]

The will of the people, not the happenstance of the cosmic universe. Only a Liberal could have come up with this nonsense.

[PGR88]

Re-do the entire election

How do we know that there are two names in the bowl instead of just the Democrat's?

There was a coin toss to decide a tie in a council race in the Pittsburgh area within the last several years.

Can’t do a runoff ?

[Salvavida]

Nonsense. We want to be entertained. Pistols at dawn.

[Tac Double Tap]

Haven’t you heard LIBERALS love lotteries.

[OrangeHoof]

I thought the Republicans were allowed to count one extra vote that had been thrown out but appealed. And I thought the tiebraker was going to be a coin flip.

Yeah, I could see the Dems rigging the film canisters by marking the lid so the draw-er would know which one to pick.

What? Why don’t they just break out their shootin’ irons and cut paper. YeeeHawww Giddyup

[detective]

How about a game of rock paper scissors?

[Fido969]

Dems will find a way to cheat.

Tied Virginia House race to be decided by drawing name out of a bowl

What's the betting line that the dems try to rig this drawing?

[sphinx]

I wonder how many redos of the draw will be permitted if the dem doesn’t win the first time.

[Az Joe]

In Cave Creek, AZ outside of Phx a tied race is decided by cutting the cards. High card wins.

[Repeal 16-17]

This has to be the stupidest way to decide an election. The event should be televised to discourage rigging the selection.

[Hacksaw]

Since Democrats regularly cheat and lie with no troubled consciences, I suspect we know what the outcome of this will be.

That’s a perfectly fair and acceptable plan. My town had a tie (My kid forgot to vote) for a council seat.

They had no easy method for a tie breaker. The Mayor nominated someone. Council was supposed to approve. Since council is a bunch of loser liberals and the Mayor is a Constitutional conservative, they went through that exercise 3-4 times which took almost a year to seat the council member.

I suggested to the mayor that the candidates who tied have a duel in the town square with paintball guns. He liked the idea but never proposed it.

A friend is a small town mayor has a tie breaker plan on the books. Flip a coin.
