Democrats already have the next senator from Virginia: Mark Warner!
UPDATE: Bearing Drift calls it for Gilmore, 4645.83 to 4019.96. Raising Kaine says Gilmore only won by 70 votes. Wow.
UPDATE2: Jeff Frederick wins the chairman’s seat. Now how soon does he resign? We D’s want that seat 🙂

Yep.
It seems to me that the VA GOP’s election of Del. Frederick sends the message that the party decided shooting itself in only one foot just wasn’t good enough.
Something like that 😉
