Virgil’s Last Stand
On Nov. 24, Tom Perriello was certified the winner in the 5CD congressional race.
Although the margin was approximately 750 votes, Virgil Goode has requested a recount. This recount stands virtually no chance of succeeding. Under state law, Goode has nothing to lose, as the state foots the bill.
Goode certainly has a legal right to the recount, but it is a grand waste of time and money.
