The Jeff guy on twitter is giving me a heart attack, only way EG gets an upset it he's doing better in NoVA.

Jeff can be a huge troll at times. He did exactly this in GA-06.

If Gillespie wins or even comes within 3 points the Dems should just disband

A win is a win, no matter how narrow or wide.

Yeah, Maxine Waters winning re-election by 1 point would surely be worthy of celebration.

It's all about margins.

EG needs to do better than in NOVA. Northam has a good chance of picking up James City, Accomack, Chesapeake.

Exit polls in 12 minutes. I think Northam will win, but margins will matter (then again, I also thought hillary would narrowly win).

In the hypothetical scenario that Gillespie wins, would this be a bigger upset than 2016?

Based on the last two days of polls, it would be. It wouldn't be an upset in the sense that Gillespie is horribly unfit for office or basic human contact and people wouldn't really put him in office, would they?

It's worth reminding everybody that NOVA almost always reports last in vote counts. So a modest Gillepsie lead pre-NOVA vote dump isn't that unlikely. That being said, if Gillepsie is leading by a ton before NOVA reports, that's bad news for Northam. On the flip side, if Gillepsie is barely holding on pre-NOVA votes or Northam is actually leading, Gillepsie will almost certainly be underperforming his polls by a significant margin.

I remember in 2012 and 2016 the respect DEM prez candidates were rather substantially behind in VA at first...

I saw the same thing, thats not what they said. CNN said Dems are worried that there is not data from southwest, and fear a loss of votes there. Essentially, our fears over the past few hours.
