Why every vote counts. Republican wins by 300 votes.
In a closely contested race, Bob Anderson emerged as the winner in the Loudoun County Commonwealth’s Attorney election. Incumbent Democrat Buta Biberaj was defeated by a narrow margin of 300 votes.
Anderson, a Republican, had previously served in the same office 20 years ago. The final vote counts were announced after a week of meticulous counting, with the last 300 ballots hand-counted on Tuesday afternoon under the supervision of elections officials, WJLA reported.
With 68,068 votes, Anderson claimed victory over Biberaj’s 67,768 votes. However, the results are still pending formal certification and finalization by the electoral board. Sixty percent of the mail-in ballots cast by election day went to Biberaj.
