The OFFICIAL 2013 Election Results Thread

Huffington Post has these numbers with all precincts in:

Mark Obenshain  1,099,412
Mark Herring  1,099,126

That is a lead of 286 votes.

If there are provisional votes to be counted, they almost always lean D.  If there are absentee ballots, I'd guess they would be a wash.

Anyone have final Nassau County (NY) results including the County Legislature?

[rbt48]

What about the legislatures?  From what I could count, the  NJ Senate remains 24D - 16R.  I counted two Rep gains in the Assembly for a 46D - 34R split.

In Virginia, the Senate (of course) remained 20 - 20 with a shift in majority party due to the change in party of the Lt Gov.  I counted a two seat D gain in the House (many near misses), but apparently a one seat D loss in an uncontested district (go figure that one).  I infer that the new House of Delegates will be 67R - 33D.

Please correct as needed.

So if there are really 3,000 missing absentee ballots from Fairfax County, Herring needs to win them by about 70 to 30% in order to make up the 1200 vote deficit  (2,100 to 900).  I don't see that happening. 

Barring another significant error, looks like Obenshain is the next VA AG to me.
