That's odd. Loudon is realiably blue. Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2013 #1

Hence the error RandySF Nov 2013 #2

Oh, I misread. So those votes will be added to the existing 800 tally?? Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2013 #4

This is huge!! (eom) StevieM Nov 2013 #3

if that is true.. chillfactor Nov 2013 #5

virginia.gov has a 7,000 vote spread with 99.72% of precincts Coyotl Nov 2013 #6

That means that we can take 610 votes away from an 820 vote margin, and we are only behind by 210 StevieM Nov 2013 #7

votes. And in the remaining 5 precincts Obama beat Romney 6456 to 5000. I think we've got this one.
