(Video) VA-Sen: Imagine if those threatening calls never happened

Had it not been for the Allen Campaign's threatening phone calls, this race might not be as close.

Just days before the election, a number of Virginia residents started getting phone calls from individuals at the Allen Campaign disguising themselves as members of the Virginia Elections Commission.  The people who were called were residents from Northern Virginia and some predominantly black districts.  They were told to not show up to vote or else they would be arrested.

Below is what one of those phone calls sounded like:

Even though this whole case might soon be moot, as it is expected that James Webb will maintain his 7,000-vote lead, we might not be talking about possible recounts if these calls had never happened.  Reportedly, thousands of people in Virginia got these phone calls.

All we can hope now is that James Webb hold onto his lead.
