RICHMOND, Va. -- The closest statewide election in modern Virginia history headed for a recount Monday after Republican Bob McDonnell was certified as the winner of the attorney general's race by 323 votes out of more than 1.9 million cast.
Democrat Creigh Deeds, a state senator, said he will petition for a recount Tuesday in Richmond Circuit Court. A three-judge panel will preside over the recount, which is expected to take at least until mid-December.
Deeds had 970,563 votes to 970,886 for McDonnell in the Nov. 8 balloting, according to the State Board of Elections.
