VA2013: Gov. McAuliffe (D), LG Northam (D), AG Mark Obenshain (R), HoD: 67R-33D

GOVERNOR

Cooch (R) narrowly loses to T-Mac (D), who fails to clear 50%. Sarvis's poll shrinks to just under 7%.

LT. GOVERNOR

State Sen. Ralph Northam (D-Norfolk) beats EW Jackson (R) easily.

ATTORNEY GENERAL

State Sen. Mark Obenshain (R-Harrisonburg) narrowly defeats State Sen. Mark Herring (D-Loudoun). A recount is likely - this is looking a lot like Bob McDonnell's 2005 win.

HOUSE OF DELEGATES

Democrats defeat 2nd district Del. L. Mark Dudenheffer (R-Stafford/Prince William) and 93rd district Del. Mike Watson (R-Newport News).

Republicans pick-up the open 4th district seat. Incumbent Del. Joe Johnson (D-Washington County) chose to retire and Democrats didn't field a replacement. Republicans pick up the open 19th district seat. Incumbent Del. Lacey Putney (I-Bedford) retired.

RESULT:

House goes from 67R, 1I, 32D (Putney actually caucused with the GOP so it was a de-facto 68-32 majority)

To: 67R-33D

Dems gain net +1 seat

Herring was just declared the winner. He's up by less than 1%.

House goes from 67R, 1I, 32D to 67R-33D.

Gerrymandering works.

lol look at how bad it's gerrymandered. The Democrats win with 75 percent of the vote and the Republicans win by half a percentage point each.

right now Obenshain up by 53 votes. Still 0.08% of the votes left to be counted- would be enough to shift one way or the other. And there will be a recount for sure.
