Results here.
UPDATE [LHW]: ABC calls it for McDonnell. Others sure to follow. At this point it’s about how bad it will be for Deeds and the other Dems.
UPDATE [ML]: Not Larry Sabato is morbidly counting the VA House races. If the Democrats are lucky, they’ll be down six by the end of the night.
UPDATE [LHW]: Total bloodbath for the Dems. Cuccinelli and Bolling cruising to easy victories. VA Dems hemhorraging state House seats as well. Major Garrett reporting that the Ds are prepared to lose Loudon and Prince William counties by large margins. It is clear, whatever else you believe, that this is not just about Creigh Deeds being a bad candidate.
The very first numbers look very promising
JoeG Tuesday, November 3rd at 7:23PM EST (link)Of course I have no clue how the county results weigh in against where they “should” be.

scarlos Tuesday, November 3rd at 7:32PM EST (link)It’s generally easier to estimate where they vote totals should be by Congressional District.
Right Now he’s leading in all but 2–the Very Liberal 8th, and the 11th which hasn’t posted any results yet.
He’s amazingly ahead in the majority-black 3rd, but that’s only by a handful of votes and he’s not likely to keep the lead for very long.
How can anyone be surprised when an ideology that regards wealth as a cardinal sin cannot produce it?

Why do votes get tabulated...
swami7774 Tuesday, November 3rd at 7:41PM EST (link)….at different rates for different statewide races? Example: right now the VA Sec of State site has 12% of the gubernatorial vote counted, but 11.8% of the AG vote counted.
How does that happen?
Probably becuase of error ballots
scarlos Tuesday, November 3rd at 7:45PM EST (link)i.e. one ballot has a clear vote for Governor, but a crossed out or illegibile vote for AG.
that’s the only thing I can think of

Cantor should open a school or something and teach others from the Republican side to punch back, Liz Cheney can guest lecture, she’s great too on hammering back at Liberals with intelligence and grace.

Note: as a resident of PWC I saw a number of commericals about Nichols and a negative ad against Anderson by the Nichols campaign; I saw absolutely no commericals by Anderson, but Anderson did come to my door and really liked the flag I fly. Pleasant gentleman with leadership managing our nuclear arsenal. Unfortunately, the D’s poured the money in for Nichols and Torian; however, if the R’s do win, they did so with little fanfare on cable and broadcast.

It is great to see a Republican sweep, but my real hero in this is Cuccinnelli. He is the true conservative bell weather. I have heard he is hoping to go after federal”low-hanging fruit” like czar created regs on the state (as unconstitutional), Congressional mandates (as unConstitutional), etc. I can only hope like crazy, but I am happy tonight.

JustLeaveMeAlone Tuesday, November 10th at 1:30PM EST (link)Here’s but one example in Eric Cantor’s own words:
“The Republican Party in its root is a party of inclusion and we ought to be promoting that and making sure that voices are heard.”
Ditto his defense of Olympia Snowe.
Others can likely speak to this better than I. Although I own property in his district (Glen Allen, VA) and lived there for years, I now, thankfully, live in TX-7 (John Culberson). I think Scope may live in Cantor’s district — I believe she has expressed some of this same frustration.
While Cantor has proven an effective whip (exception: Cao), he appears to be coming down with a terminal case of Potomac Fever. He’s hardly alone in that, but I’m just plain sick of Republicans who give lip service to conservative values until they get admitted to the Congressional Club.
Rampant elitism is irritating, whether from the Left or Right.
