		<description><![CDATA[And unfortunately the victor is Ken Cuccinelli by a seizable margin. Turn-out was very low and Democrats I guess just didn&#8217;t feel like showing up. Turnout among the under 35 demographic was almost a third the size it was just last year and was even slightly lower than at the last gubernatorial race.  Either way, here are the results with 98% of districts [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=shannon2009.wordpress.com&amp;blog=9627958&amp;post=192&amp;subd=shannon2009&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
