get counted first, and then us. Reports were that voter turnout is higher than in 2008, or at least equal to it. That bodes well for Dem counties, which are few in number but loaded with people. I don't know either what the 44 percent entails though. We'll see.

Most of Northern Virginia is still out. That's the mega blue region followed by Hampton Roads.

The rural areas in Virginia report first.

The rural areas in Virginia favor the Rethugs.

Democrats ALWAYS start performing well LATER in the vote count in Virginia.

If the Prez does lose Virginia, I hope Cantor would lose by some special magic. Man. I will be bitterly disappointed. I'm figuring BO to win. I haven't thought otherwise. If they steal it somehow I'd fear an insurrection. I should be a little prepared for loss. Just in case. It's crazy not to.
