According to Not Larry Sabato (NLS), as of 5:21 PM:

The numbers now look good for Tim Kaine, Leslie Byrne and Creigh Deeds.

There is still plenty of time, but Northern Virginia is coming back ridiculous right now, and that is a problem for all 3 GOP candidates.

In addition, NLS has all but called the 67th House District for Democrat Chuck Caputo, and the 41st District for Democrat Dave Marsden. 

Interesting...but it's still anecdotal so who knows.  Also, it ain't over 'til it's over and polls are open another hour and 20 minutes.  So get out there and VOTE - there's still time and it could make a big difference in some tight House races.  Thanks.

[UPDATE #1: For all you NLS fans, Ben is now strongly implying that Dave Albo (D) in the 42nd and Jeff Frederick  (R) in the 52nd could be in big trouble.  Depends on Kaine's margin of victory in Northern Virginia, no doubt.]

[UPDATE #2: NLS is now calling David Bulova (D) in the 37th and Chuck Caputo (R) in the 67th.  If true, that's one pickup for the Democrats -- Caputo]

[UPDATE #3:NLS is now calling Tim Kaine the winner in the governor's race.  Also, Dave Marsden (D) over Michael Golden (R) in the 41st.  Second Democratic pickup if true.]

[UPDATE #4:NLS is now calling Dave Albo (R) over Greg Werkheiser (D) in the 42nd District (ugh!), and Matt Lohr (R) over Lowell Fulk (D) in the 26th (also, ugh).  Also, Anne Crockett-Stark (R) over incumbent Benny Keister (D) in the 6th (ditto)]

[UPDATE #5: NewsChannel8 is reporting that Dick Black (R) has all but conceded to David Poisson (D) in the 32nd District.  Also, Hilda Barg (D) is up by 15 votes over Jeff Frederick (R) in the 52nd, with 87.50% of the votes counted.  NLS is reporting that Katherine Waddell (I) barely defeated Brad Marrs (R) in the 68th.  Also,  Eric Ferguson (D) lost to Allen Dudley (R) in the 9th, apparently.  Looks like Earnie Porta (D) is going to lose by about 1,000 votes to Michelle McQuigg (R) in the 51st...bummer.]
