Kaine up by 6.4% with 40% of precincts counted.

Any idea what strong Kilgore areas have yet to be counted?  I can imagine that parts of Northern Virginia haven't posted results yet, but are there any areas where Kilgore can count on a major boost?

Counties generally leak in results in a way that - once you have checked which areas are reporting and which aren't - the information isn't useful anymore.

I think it is safe to say that parts of NOVA have not yet reported.

I'm getting news that Kaine is up 1.7% with 65% of precincts reporting, but I am highly suspect and would not trust these numbers (even though ti is a generally accurate source.)

Is that a fake story or a real story?  And if it is real, what is the source?

Ohio has a fast site, but slow vote counters.

Wow -- what source?  If true, the race has tightened significantly.

I have a fellow who is getting information from the campaigns, who seem to have direct access to updating numbers.  But, he says, it is not from his usual sources.  He is not sure if it not just an estimation, but it's from a relatively authoritative source.  I'd disregard it for now.

The Attorney General race is close, too!

Any Joisey returns coming in?

[Alcon]

Results have not been updated in ten minutes...normally every three.  They may be working on a big batch right now.

No Joisey results so far.

[Fmr. Gov. NickG]

I think this will in fact come down to the wire....Kaine up by 5.3% with almost 50% reporting, but the Lt. Gov race is suspiciously close.  Kaine's got to be the favorite though.

Anyone have any idea when polls close in California?  That'll be an interesting one, too.  I'm expecting Sanders to win in San Diego, but most Schwarzenegger's ballot initiatives to fail.

There is a precinct discrepancy between races; one has 50% reporting, the other with 45%, and the other with 40%, so I wouldn't pay attention to parallels drawn between races just yet.

The Attorney General race is close, too!

The Dems where meant to be winning that, our candidate is endorsed by the NRA after all , surprised at the closeness of Lt.Gov race... the Kilgore/Kaine face off close as a badger's wetsuit

Not yet.  It's taking too long for the site to load the individual county/city numbers.  Richmond City has numbers reported (obviously for Kaine), but no numbers for Richmond County yet . . . for example.  Prince WIlliam is going for Kilgore at the moment.

Jersey NJN has it 51-47 Forrester- No precint and number of votes- very, very early going.

[J-Mann]

Thanks jfern and Boss Tweed. 

I'm in Fairfax county...haven't heard any results for here yet, and I don't know the political landscape well enough to predict which way it'll go. Kilgore would be my best guess, though.
