Virginia is a bit of a strange state, it is almost like 2 states. Northern Virginia will go for Northam, the rest of VA will go for Gillespie imho. If there is a high voter turnout in Northern VA, I think Northam will win. If voter turnout is low, it will probably be Gillespie.

It has been a nasty campaign. I don't even live in Virginia, I live in Maryland, but we get Northern Virginia's commercials on the TV
