Republican Glenn Youngkin has won the race for Virginia governor, NBC News projects, defeating Terry McAuliffe in a race that’s been watched around the nation as a bellwether for the 2022 midterm elections.
More than 1.1 million votes were cast early in Virginia in the 2021 race, according to the Virginia Public Access Project.
In Fairfax County, there were still about 20,000 votes to be added to a batch of early vote totals as of about 9:30 p.m. Tuesday. Thumb drives that record the votes malfunctioned in voting machines used at four early voting sites — the county government center, Springfield, Tysons and Mt. Vernon. Paper ballots from those machines needed to be rescanned.
"Let's count all these votes," McAuliffe said from campaign headquarters Tuesday night.
More than 130,000 early in-person votes were reported before 8 p.m., a county spokesman said.

WOW, WOOHOO!!!
I’ll still feel better once McAuliffe has conceded.
Bttt
Looking for a solid W, is this it?
Now nearly every dimocrat gov up for reelection will become a moderate. hahaha
Great news! Scary it was so close, and you know the Dems were itching to cheat.
With the VA GOP so diligent with getting poll watchers and election lawyers into position, this might signify the way we stop voter fraud.
Don’t expect concessions ever again.... not that they are even meaningful. Remember, Gore reversed his as far back as 2000.
Younkin about to speak. 1st black female LT Gov in VA History is speaking now
Awesome!
So would many. But I suspect a great many DEMs would just like to see McAuliffe fade into the background. He unfortunately spoke the DEMs truth and pissed off a whole of of parents in this country.
The pain within NBC must be unbearable. Wonder if anyone will be sober enough to go on the air in the morning.
This is a HUGE win and it shows that we can take the fight back to the democrats and beat them on their turf!
Wait until the boxes of ballots come in before calling it a win.
Remember 2020, there is plenty of time for the steal to slip in tonight. You know it is coming.
If they do that they’ll lose their kook base and be labelled DINOs.
Well, this is amazing and good news!
We won Virginia. Let’s analyze the victory, the strategy, the campaign, and the execution of election monitoring and keegan strategy.
Virginia might be the blueprint to beating the rats at their cheating game.
I don’t believe this race was as close as it will turn out.
I agree. I feel better about ‘22 and ... dare I dream?... ‘24.
Nope
Its over
Me too. After that, let the Church Bells ring throughout the land!
