To David Yancey(R) via name drawn from a goddamn film can. Simmonds chooses to concede rather than request a re-count.
https://t.co/h6xycvFg4e RICHMOND Democrat Shelly Simonds, who lost a tied Virginia House of Delegates contest last week in a random drawing, conceded defeat Wednesday, culminating a tumultuous election saga that cemented Republicans narrow control of the chamber.

No, he actually won by 10, then some shenanigans happened, then some more shenanigans happened, and he ended up winning.

The "thrown out" vote, BTW, was a voter who crossed off their pick and changed it without using a new form. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz. The Three Beats Of War, Peace And Revolution Continue On Forever." - Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz ... Copied to Clipboard!

there was a ballot that shouldn't have been counted according to the rules, but republican judges went "I'm 90% sure this was meant to be a vote for a republican." and then a rng was used to determine the winner using amazon film. The republican won.

If there was ever an appropriate time for a second vote I think itd be in the event of a tie.
