The drama during past Republican nomination contests has played out on the convention floor over hours. This year it s being measured in rounds.
The Attorney General’s race was counted in three rounds on Sunday. Virginia’s Republicans deployed 80 counters to go through over 30,000 ballots.
On 152 tables vote tellers laid out ballots and sorted through them before reporting them to a staffer entering the figures onto a spreadsheet.
After they counted all the votes Miyares of Virginia Beach led, but not by enough to win in the first round only 37% marked him as their first choice, under a weighted voting system. In last place was Chesterfield county supervisor Leslie Haley. About 4,500 voters marked her as their first choice, so in round two, those voters’ second choices were distributed to the remaining candidates.

During a televised debate Wednesday night, Jones went on the attack against Herring for wearing blackface when he was in college. “I sat in the room two years ago with the Black Caucus when you disclosed that you wore blackface just days after you called on Governor Northam to resign. I was there when you took that paper out of your jacket, smoothed it out on the table and read us a statement with no empathy, no compassion.”
