[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking deeper at the 538 results ... all of these are Republican held seats, btw.

Going in: 66 R, 34 D
Dems have surely won 13 seats: 53 R, 47 D
6 seats are close: 47 R, 47 D

94 - R winning by 12 (!!) votes. All votes in but provos.

28 - R + 104. All votes in but provos. I can't see that changing things.

40 - D + 185. Waiting on PWC absentee ballots. Assuming 750 absentees (15% of election day total) and that they break down by the same %'s as election day voters ... absentees break down 423-327. I think this goes Blue and this is the House MAJORITY LEADER.

27 - R + 138. Waiting on Chesterfield absentee ballots. This may flip but I think it stays R just barely.

68 - D + 463. We're waiting on Chesterfield absentees. Assuming absentees are 15% of election day total ... that's 2,639 ballots. The R won the Chesterfield part of this district 55-44, so that'd break the absentees down 1452-1187. Not enough to make up. I think the D wins here.

85 - D + 447. Waiting on absentee ballots from VA Beach. Gut feeling says the margin is too big to overcome.

I think the House is tied or 51-49 D. [/quote]

And Dems won big despite all that Republican gerrymandering.  Imagine how well they will do once districts are redrawn fairly! [/quote]
