7:40 PM
Peace (R) 3,751 (51.76%)
Montgomery (D) 3,438 (47.44%)
Peace's lead shrinks, but time is running out. Henrico (2 of 4 precincts reporting) and New Kent (4 of 10 precincts) are the only two counties remaining. Are there enough votes in those 2 counties for Montgomery to catch up? He needs to gain 313 votes.

Peace's lead shrinks by 1 vote. There are 4 more precincts left in New Kent (currently 687-671 for Peace). Montgomery needs 164 votes to catch up, which will be really tough, if not impossible given the way New Kent is running.

Montgomery (D) 3,994 (48.39%)
Just 3 more precincts in New Kent are left, and Peace is ahead by 198 votes. Not looking good for the "blue" team. :(

Just 1 more precinct - Providence Forge - in New Kent County is left, and Peace is ahead by 175 votes. REALLY not looking good for the "blue" team. :(
