Analysis: Cleaveland holds 14-vote lead, but city still out
The Republican primary for the House of Delegates in the 17th District is going to go down to the wire, and that wire is the city.
We have results from 14 of 30 precincts -- but almost all those precincts still outstanding are in the city (plus Lindenwood in Roanoke County.)
For now, it's like this:
Cleaveland 480
Head 466
Wray 410
Johnson 171
Williams 151
Cleaveland took Botetourt, with Head a close second.
Wray took Roanoke County, with Head a close second and Cleaveland a respectable third. But Wray probably didn't win the county by as much as he needed to.
So, we'll wait on Roanoke.
