UPDATE ON VIRGINIA ATTORNEY GENERAL RACE

[huckleberry]

Here's an e-mail that I received at 11:45PM tonight, November 27 ---

Friends, I thought many of you might be interested in the information below. On November 29 the election results will be certified. After that, a candidate may request an official recount... which Creigh Deeds will do. Creigh is currently behind by one hundredth of a percent!

Every update since election day has closed the gap further. Truly, every vote counts.

I hope everyone enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday.

7. Creigh's a super nice guy, I hope it swings in his favor

He was at our Dem BBQ last year stumping for Tim Kaine. God, I can't wait to get the fuck out of OHIO and buy me land in C'ville again. Soon people, soon. By April.
