Where can I track VA counties? I want to see how Albemarle votes (and I want to see how Periello does against Goode).

at NYT.com they have a zoomable map that does returns by county. Very cool.

ETA: Albemarle''s looking blue

LOVE it!

CNN on TV, NYT and 538 online. And PS of course. And sometimes Boston.com. The data is like gems, it all comes in drops to all sources at once.

ETA: Thing- are you in VA? Do you think VA beach will go blue?

I am in VA! Don''t tell anyone-I don''t want any of you crazy diamond ladies to hunt me down!

I don''t know about VA Beach, but the Norfolk/Hampton Roads area has a lot of African-American voters. As does Richmond! Plus Richmond has all the college kids. I''m reaaaaaaallllly hoping VA goes blue-I would love it!

HA! Thing, I''m comin'' to getcha!!!

NOOOOOOOOO!

MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Oh, what the hell! Come and get me crazies!

Oh my goodness. Nelson County (VA) went for Obama with 100% of votes returned.

Never EVER would have guessed that!

Richmond isn't reporting yet. It's that little dent in chesterfield near henrico I have credits from VCU! I took classes there in high school. Grant park is going ape sh!t.

 

[LostSapphire]

OK I'm in from up here in Canuck-Land.


CNN, ABC, MSNBC on the internet
CNN on one TV
NBC on the other
And ToTo The Wonderdog's channelling Obama

[FrekeChild]

What did I miss?

 

[E B]

I''m amused to see it so close in Texas, even if only 1 percent is reporting. I''m one of the few liberals born and raised in Texas.

Funny! I know-how sweet would it be to be there?! In real life I probably wouldn''t go because I don''t like big crowds like that, but in theory I''m jealous of them!
