McCain crosses 50 percent threshold
Posted Feb12, 2008 at 09:25 PM
McCain just crossed the 50 percent threshold in the State Board of Elections official tally, which will be an important psychological breakthrough on what otherwise hasn't been a good night for the Republican front-runner. His number is likely to go up some, too. The biggest place we’re still waiting for is Virginia Beach, where the early precincts have gone pretty strong for McCain. We’re also still waiting on Roanoke -- not a peep from the Star City yet. And something is screwy with the numbers from Chesterfield County, which I’ve been waiting for all night. The state board says McCain got 93 percent of the vote and Huckabee got zero. Nobody gets zero. I’m asking my Republican sources what’s up with that.
