7. CNN has been faster than that site all night.

11. The media outlets have Webb +4,000 in Isle of Wight County...

...versus what the SBE site does. That can't be right. Reality is probably closer to the SBE's +7,800 overall margin for Webb.

9. OP's citing CNN, which does have the difference at 11,700... n/t

[riverwalker]

5. then no free recount right? n/t

[progdonkey]

6. which puts him past the .5% automatic recount threshold, if I'm not mistaken...

so, if it remains like this, the only way there'll be a recount is if Allen requests one, and then he'll have to pay for it.

8. 11,744 vote lead for Webb

Webb - 1,167,694
Allen - 1,155950

That is still, I believe, larger than the maximum of 11,000 votes required for a mandatory state-run recount. If the Rethuglican Party wants to pay for a recount, I say let them. Webb was ahead by 6% in the exit polls and ends up winning by .5%?! That's beyond the statistical margin of error, so if they want a recount that might dredge up "voting irregularities", I say we have NOTHING TO FEAR AND EVERYTHING TO GAIN! THE SENATE IS OURS!

10. Cutoff Is About 11,618 As Of Now

That's .005 of the total vote as of this moment.
