Rick Howell comments on the recount proceedings for the Va. AG race. Republican Bob McDonnell appears to be winning but each recount revises the numbers down further each time. Right now, as it stands, there is only 323 votes difference out of the 1.94 million cast. Democratic Senator Creigh Deeds is the opponent and it's expected that he will request a recount. McDonnell is also an acolyte of the Pat Robertson school of politics so some should probably be worried. It's also not a stretch to expect this man to go for the governor's mansion the next time around either if he wins.

Some watchers are calling this closest statewide race in Va. history so this is something significant. The Washington Post has a good write-up on the situation.
