southwest virginia for eight many could ve seen that as a wasted day given that it is so sparsely populated, so heavily republican, but what these numbers tonight look like that accomplished for him is that he was able to raise that the expected turnout hopefully for him, giving him some advantage in areas where he otherwise may have lost, so this is not calle their ships, but as you can tel behind me, this is a party atmosphere. i even spoke to a couple registered independents, one is ahead of that and he said that the last time around he voted for mcauliffe for governor governor, but he said his mind was changed over the. he seems to have done very well with latino voters in virginia. we will dig into those numbers as we go through this tonight. let s go to the mcauliffe campaign. standing by where it is as bright side, a lot of carpet that we can see on that floor.
auliffe coming out moments ago not conceding this race, bu it s not looking good for him a the moment. up mark right major divisions over education, the economy and the current president s low approval numbers and a former president lots of baggage. glenn youngkin has 49 percent , 49.864 mcauliffe. 98 percent insofar. mcauliffe failed to hold a significant push. one by president biden a year ago but there were plenty of vote still to be counted. its arrays that many people believed could be a harbinger o things to come for the 2020 to midterm election. here is the deal. youngkin has a commanding league . it is a commanding lead. but our decision test has not called that yet, there is still a significant amount of outstanding voters in highly
parents that should be in charg of their children s destiny in school systems. joe biden and nancy pelosi did not get the message. may be more of their members will look in the mirror and say i don t want to be that next thierry mcauliffe. today is a wake-up call to washington democrats to abandon the partisanship, the extremist agenda. washington-based programs that cost trillions of dollars. one thing i will tell you is republicans listened. we hear you. clearly the gop gearing up after a shocker in the garden state. a race that was never supposed to be in question. now too close to call it even a this hour and after governor murphy divisive challenge, analyst say the statement is already made. same thing down i-95, a disaster for thierry mcauliffe , extending comeback for glenn youngkin. we are going to win.
they re is an awful lot here and it happen pretty quickly. eutectic those who we re involved trying to get terry mc auliffe elected again and they quietly acknowledge that things don t look so good right now from where they are. you don t need to talk to political sources to figure tha out just by looking around the room and looking at the people here, there is no sense or air of celebration going on right here now. thierry mcauliffe took the stage another indication of where things are right now. spoke very briefly, tried to give folks here little bit of hope that things weren t finished yet, but there was really no sense of optimism whe he did appear he here he is. we ve still got lots of boat to count. we are going to continue to count the votes because every single virginian deserves to have their vote counted. in that address he thanked his supporters, he think his family, but there was no sense of optimism surrounding it as though he were going to win are
looking at running the table if you are the mcauliffe people with all the numbers. absolutely to your point and we will see if they can do it you would have to pitch a perfect game at this moment. that is a big margin right now. how many male and votes do you have here in prince william? you are going to get 170,000 counted so far it could be higher than that. fairfax committee looking at th numbers here. in excess of 400,000 votes, and how many more could be out there ? that is something we can t determine. i would also say chesterfield county it s in a similar bucket. this is a good number. he essentially flip this county just from last november.
