From Cville to South Boston and Lovingston to Lynchburg, the hope and momentum are only growing stronger. And renewed blue Farmville too!

Our country endures, because of the brave men and women who have served in uniform. To our veterans and military families, I thank you for all you’ve done and continue to do in the defense of our great nation.

I’m so appreciative of the incredible support we have received as we await the final results of our election. I’m filled with nothing but gratitude for all of the election officials and observers who are putting in overtime to make sure that every vote is counted across the 5th.

The race for the 5th District is too close to call and every vote must be counted. We’re blown away by the enthusiasm we saw at the polls today, by surging support in rural areas and among African-American voters, and by the high number of same-day voter registrations.

I am grateful to every voter and to every volunteer who helped get us this far. We must ensure all of the thousands of votes left to count, including those of our brave men and women in uniform serving overseas, are counted and every voice is heard.

Polls are closed, but if you're in line, you still have a constitutional right to cast your ballot!

UVA students are straight up shattering records - over 110% of last PRESIDENTIAL levels with one hour left to show up and be heard. @DelegateCallsen and I spoke to just a few of them tonight. Get to the polls and STAY IN LINE!

Seems like momentum in Goochland is with those of us fighting to lower the cost of gas and groceries, hold the corrupt accountable, and make healthcare affordable again.

Farmville’s labor and deliver unit closed after HR1. Today, folks across Prince Edward vote to make McGuire pay a political price for the healthcare, gas and grocery prices he’s made us all pay.

It can be easy to say "Why should I vote?" when it feels like things are out of control. But staying silent certainly won't change anything, and casting a vote is the most effective way to demand change. Get out to the polls before 7pm tonight and use your voice.

Pittsylvania County voters are eager for a common sense alternative to the corruption and cost-spikes coming from Washington. We must reverse these policies before the next planting season and before health services in Gretna close.

The sun is starting to shine on Danville this election morning. Good to run into my friends Gary Miller and Bryant Hood at Ballou park (a great running spot, by the way).

Started bright and early this morning in Halifax, where they are voting like their health care depends on it as South Boston’s hospital is at risk from McGuire’s vote for HR1.
