The obvious assumption is that there are official sources of information besides that website we keep linking.

It looks like CNN has the totals for Webb/Allen reversed from those of the VA site, which would make Webb still behind.

[/ QUOTE ]

They're not reversed. They are reporting different precints. This thing will end up as close as it can get.

[/ QUOTE ]

How is CNN getting the report BEFORE the state of VA's website?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm going to guess that they are using some exit polling data? That would seem pretty dicey at this point though.

[/ QUOTE ]

No way they are using exit poll data when reporting actual results. Something else is going on. BTW this can't be a liberal media conspiracy since Fox is reporting Webb up with 99% in as well.

I'm dying to know what the absentee ballot status is, because that's going to be huge. Let's say there are as many absentee votes in VA as in MD---that's 200k. Even winning the absentee vote by 1% could swing the result if these haven't been factored in already.

Webb will take the lead by a bit before the night is over. He will then lose on absentee ballots. It will be in court for the better part of the month, but that's how it will end.

[/ QUOTE ]

Shouldn't the absentee ballots be counted by now. Aren't you supposed to have them in by election day?? I honestly don't know.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm pretty sure it's postmarked by today.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm trying to check the VA law. I know in PA they have to be at the election office by election day. Not just postmarked.

10 ways to make sure your absentee ballot is counted

#10 says it has to be at the Election board by 7pm Election Day.

Well, they said that Webb had more votes w/ 100% of votes tallied, but still haven't given the state to the Dems. So, there's your start.

They should be in already, but not necessarily counted I would think.
