Does this seem suspicious to anyone?
1) Possible discrepancy in Fairfax absentee votes could affect count in AG race
Huh.
You don't say.
2) Nearly 2,000 votes in Fairfax possibly uncounted
Oh, a broken machine. Right.
No kidding.
3) Herring gains in Fairfax County canvass
How convenient.
1) Possible discrepancy in Fairfax absentee votes could affect count in AG race
The Fairfax County Electoral Board is investigating a possible irregularity in the number of absentee ballots cast in Virginia’s largest jurisdiction that Democrats say could shift votes in the still-unresolved race for Virginia attorney general.
...
One oddity was flagged in Fairfax County by the political team of Rep. Gerald E. Connolly (D-Va.).
Huh.
Kevin O’Holleran, a spokesman for Herring’s campaign, said the Democrat was also eager to get to the bottom of the issue.
“We feel very strongly that Mark Herring will be the next attorney general,” O’Holleran said. “Based on a number of significant indicators, there may be thousands of unaccounted absentee votes in Fairfax County. This issue needs to be addressed immediately to ensure every Virginian’s vote is counted.”
You don't say.
2) Nearly 2,000 votes in Fairfax possibly uncounted
Fairfax County election officials said Friday that they believe nearly 2,000 votes went uncounted after Tuesday’s elections, a technical error that could affect the outcome of the still unresolved race for Virginia attorney general.
The error stemmed from problems with a broken machine at the county’s Mason district voting center, officials said.
Oh, a broken machine. Right.
The extra votes, which come from an area that leans heavily in favor of Democrats, could affect the outcome of the attorney general’s race ...
No kidding.
3) Herring gains in Fairfax County canvass
The Fairfax County Electoral Board has released the numbers from its canvass of the absentee votes from Tuesday's election, and the results are good news for Democratic attorney general candidate Sen. Mark Herring.
After Saturday's canvass, results from the 8th Congressional District show 5,137 votes for Herring and 2,039 for Republican state Sen. Mark Obenshain. That's a gain of about 2,100 votes for Herring, about 900 for Obenshain.
How convenient.
