CNN just reported that the Webb Allen race has just flipped the lead with 99% of the votes counted! WOW!!
The remaining areas to be counted are Dem leaning districts but the close margin will mean an automatic recount as mandated by Virginia law. Watch for Florida like Gestapo actions by the GOP in case of a re-count. Webb will continue to need our support tomorrow morning onward!!!
Update: Howard Dean just stated he feels confident that remaining votes are from Northern Virginia and will add tp the Webb lead. Webb holding at 1141052 v Allen 1138676 according to CNN.
Update: New numbers - Webb 1143144 Allen 1140879
Update: CNN reports discrepancy with VA numbers with some confusion of whether the numbers were somehow inverted by AP and Allen actually has the lead. Oh boy, this is going down to the wire...
Update: Allen just conceded that he did not win and that there will be a re-count. Look out for a re-reun of the Florida 2000 re-count if this is the seat that decides the Senate.
Update: New numbers - Webb 1143756 Allen 1141030
A difference of 2726
