Barbara
November 7th, 2017

Anxiety was setting in. Barbara Comstock's ally, Ed Gillespie, was the Republican nominee for governor, against former Congressman Tom Perriello. To Barbara, not only was this race important as the man elected would have a major say in her district's 2020 redistricting, it would also reveal if Virginia was truly back to being a Republican state or if Bernie was a uniquely bad candidate.

Unfortunately,  polling for the gubernatorial race was incredibly scattered, with many pollsters showing wide leads for both candidates, always with large amounts of undecided voters. The two camps went into election night effectively blind.

But with Trump sitting at 22% approvals, very few Republicans were optimistic.

Slowly, the results began to pour in.

F**k. Looks like those Perriello polls were right...

Results (with messed up colors, yay!)
Governor


Tom Perriello - 58.64%
Ed Gillespie - 39.77%

Lieutenant Governor
Justin Fairfax - 54.23%
Jill Vogel - 45.77%

Attorney General
Mark Herring (i) - 64.64%
John Adams - 35.36%

House of Delegates

Democratic Party - 62 (+28(!!!))
Republican Party - 38 (-28)
Democrats gained the following districts: 2, 10, 12, 13, 14, 21, 28, 31, 32, 40, 42, 50, 51, 54, 60, 62, 67, 68, 72, 73, 76, 83, 84, 85, 88, 91, 94, and 100, while holding all of their districts.  

It was nearing 10 PM in Alexandria. The results have already been called, and it was seen that Democrats swept everything from the top of the ticket to the bottom. Barbara went to the Gillespie watch party to speak to the distraught and disappointed supporters still in the convention hall.

"My fellow Virginians, we've shown the world that democracy is still strong in our state. I have called and congratulated Mr. Perriello, Mr. Faifax, and Mr. Herring on their successes. I've also spoken to my friend Ed, and he has conceded the race, despite a strong campaign in the face of difficulty.

Unfortunately, and it is with a heavy heart that I must say this, this term will be my last in Congress. I will not seek reelection in 2018. I have cherished this opportunity to represent Virginia's 10th in Congress, and I will continue to work with Republicans in Northern Virginia for years to come. It won't be in Congress, however."

You somewhat predicted the future (Minus the Comstock retiring part).
