Hmmm. Virginia

As you can see, we’ve still got less than 10% of the results in in Virginia. And none of the networks are venturing a call yet. That in itself is a minor surprise since Deeds was so far behind in the polls.

See the results come in on our scoreboard to the right.

Remember too, Northern Virginia results tend to come in late in Virginia races. So perhaps the network callers want to see some representatives precincts come in up there before they venture a prediction. We’ll keep you posted in this thread.

7:46 PM: Deedsmentum! Can Deeds make it to 8 PM with no call in the VA Gov’s race?

7:55 PM: Still no call. WTF? To be clear, this sounds like “too early to call” not “too close to call.” Still, I’m surprised they’re not calling it yet. Figure they’re waiting for numbers from NOVA. If you’re in the mix, send me a line.

7:58 PM: So close! Deeds hold out till 7:58 PM before MSNBC called it for McDonnell. So close.
