7 PM: Polls now closed in Virginia. Gov. race results here. Results for House of Delegates and local races here.
Now wouldn’t that be sweet! How super. We recall the B-vites spending election night in a joyous mood watching those states click off one by one for the Trumpster!! Let’s see how many in the State pen are going to vote….
Republican Ed Gillespie and Democrat Ralph Northam are virtually tied in the race for Virginia governor, but with signs that Gillespie may have come from behind to take the edge in the campaign’s final days.
Both candidates are focusing on issues that drive their respective party bases in a test of whether the Old Dominion has swung to the left, or can return to its center-right balance.
For much of the campaign, Gillespie has focused on bread-and-butter issues that Republicans typically use to persuade swing voters, talking about job creation, economic growth, reducing regulations, and improving education and health care. He was also running behind Northam for much of the campaign, despite the fact that Gillespie is a very seasoned and capable political strategist and campaigner. More at Breitbart

Looks like Virginia is a dysfunctional corrupt state.

Ditto NJ, and let’s not forget NYC where the worst thing to happen since Dinkins, commie Bill de Blasio, is ahead by 40%.

Hope springs eternal…in Virginia, that is. Here in NJ, the only other state with a gubernatorial race this year, the voters will undoubtably vote for higher taxes, sanctuary statehood and minimum wage increase sure to cause hardship and job loss to small business. Multi-millionaire former Goldman Sachs head Ohil Murphy leads by 15% in the latest polls. Shamelessly outgoing NJ governor Chris Christie (R) blew the chance to turn the tide in this state when he defeated uber corrupt ex Goldman Sachs head Jon Corrine eight years ago. Christie’s massive ego, matching his massive girth, along with a self assured arrogance has frowned the door of the governor’s mansion to the left, a state in the hip pocket of Obama and the Clinton’s. Let us pray for Ed Hillespie to prevail in Virginia. Don’t waste your prayers on NJ.

That Northam is a clone to the present governor there, McCauliffe (stupid spellcheck, wink). The only reason why Northam is running is because of him being the LT. Governor to McCauliffe. smiles
