Here we go. Tonight’s results for #WA03 between Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D) and Joe Kent (R) are rolling in.

Cowlitz County and Lewis County both just added about 6k votes each

MGP’s lead has dropped from about 10k votes, to less than 7k votes

Waiting on 20k from Clark County
Both Cowlitz County and Lewis County favored Kent, so it’s no surprise he made up significant ground there.

However, that should be the last major vote drop from Lewis County.

Cowlitz (which is more competitive) has roughly 6k left to go. Clark County will decide it. #WA03
As a reminder - Clark County officials say they have about 69,000 ballots left to count and can only process about 20k per day.

Clark expects to share tonight’s results around 6pm.

After that, still close to 50k ballots from Clark to go. Tonight’s #WA03 results will be telling
BIG UPDATE: Clark County adds about 25k votes tonight, and @MGPforCongress (D) maintains her lead over @joekent16jan19 (R).

MGP’s lead dropped from 10k to 6k from Cowlitz/Lewis updates earlier.

But about 80% of the remaining votes are Clark votes, and she’s holding those #WA03
As of Thursday night, here’s what’s left to count in #WA03

Clark County - 44k votes
Cowlitz - 6k
Lewis - About 1k
Other 4 - Roughly 2-3k combined (estimate)

In Clark’s 25k drop tonight, Kent only had a 126-vote advantage.

That won’t be enough to beat MGP, if that ratio holds

Hello all! We’re expecting updated results in the #WA03 Congressional race around 5 pm PT today

As it stands, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D) leads Joe Kent (R) by about 10,000 votes

There’s an estimated 70,000 votes left to be reported, most from Clark County, but not all @KGWNews
The number of estimated votes left in this race could rise based on what’s to come from Lewis and Cowlitz counties as well - both areas that favor Kent.

The current Lewis and Cowlitz results are below.

We expect the latest Lewis drop at 4pm PT. Cowlitz around 8pm PT tonight.
Kent tweeted this morning there are about 120k votes left to count.

That’s higher than estimates I’ve seen based on turnout projections, but it’s anyone’s guess.

For context, 307k voted in #WA03 race in 2018 midterms. We’re at 219k now, and turnout is projected a little down.

I'm covering the WA-03 Congressional race, where @MGPforCongress and @joekent16jan19 are competing for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives.

I'll share updates in this thread - it's a unique race that's earned national attention. #WA03 @KGWNews Image
About a month ago, we talked with Republican candidate Joe Kent.

Kent is endorsed by former President Trump and aligns with the more far-right ideals of the Republican Party. He explained his "America First" platform and disavowed white nationalist ties.

We then talked with Democratic candidate Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.

She said she represents the "middle ground" in this race and said she'd be willing to stray from party lines to represent voters' interests.

#WA03 has been a GOP-led district for 12 years

It’s #ElectionDay in Virginia with a projected close race for Governor.

Elections Commissioner Chris Piper says about 20% of 5.9 million registered voters in Virginia voted early.

That’s more than 6x the number from 2017 - COVID effects/new laws/shifting preferences @13NewsNow
Starting a thread from here. More than the Governor’s race is on the ballot - Lt. Gov, AG plus all 100 House of Delegate seats are on the table.

Election officials expect pre-processing of absentee ballots to be done by 7 - we’ll closely track when CAP results come in @13NewsNow

NEW: The attorney for the family of Andrew Brown Jr. calls for the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office to release the body camera video now.

Brown was shot and killed by a Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Deputy yesterday morning during the execution of a search warrant. @13NewsNow Image
Keith Rivers - president of the local NAACP chapter - says the Sheriff’s department so far has failed to create trust and transparency for accountability and justice to move forward.

Brown had 7 children and took care of others as well, family attorney said. @13NewsNow
About the search warrant - the city clerk’s office says it does *not* currently have the search warrant that officers were trying to serve before Brown was shot and killed yesterday.

Clerk says it’s part of NCSBI investigation and in their hands. I’m working to get it @13NewsNow Image
