Chesterfield as a whole normally serves to absorb Real chmond and Henrico. BUT we have been make some gains there.

Gerrymander changes when voters shift. College crowd was out which is a good sign.

Similarly, the key Richmond suburb of Chesterfield County, which had long been a Republican stronghold, was showing a 1-point edge for Gillespie with 75 of 76 precincts reporting. In 2013, Republican Ken Cuccinelli took the county by nearly 8 points in his losing bid against McAuliffe.

I don't know how close it on the final count was yet. But we won and that's what counts.
