Despite his opponent’s victory lap, state senator Mark Obenshain isn’t conceding the Virginia attorney-general race. Democratic state senator Mark Herring claimed victory in the race earlier today and also announced the members of his transition team. So at a press conference in Richmond this afternoon, Obenshain named his transition team members, as well. They include Jerry Kilgore, former attorney general who lost the governor’s race to now-senator Tim Kaine in 2005. Obenshain also said talk of a recount is premature. The state will officially certify the election results on November 25.
