I'd say that Northam wins by anywhere from +1 to +5, but in the event of a surprise result for Gillespie, the margin would be Gillespie by less than +1.

Before everyone starts trashing me so far for predictions I have a 1.4% margin of error
Also I only got 3 states wrong for 2016 election
And my toss ups were  OHIO MICHIGAN NEVADA NORTH CAROLINA FLORIDA and NEW HAMPSHIRE which I said a few before the election would be the closest state.

Northam wins by 5-10%.

The average for most of the polls aggregated is around +7 Northam.

Since Northam's average lead has been smaller than Warner's average lead in 2014, I suspect there is a good chance this one will go down to the wire just like the 2014 race. In other words, the identity of the winner will probably not be apparent until over 95% of the precincts report their results.

Yep don’t forget the reason I’m saying Gillespie is going to win is because KC in 2013 and EG in 2014 never led in 1 poll. Heck McAuliffe was up in the average by 6.7 points only won by 2.5.
So if that happens again in 2017 then Gillespie is going to be called at 95-99% in.

Because someone needs to be the optimist to everybody else's Eeyore: Northam +9.

I'm prepared to eat that prediction on Election Day if I have to.
