Loudoun County voters in Tuesday's election gave a majority of their votes to Republicans leading the party's ticket as Virginia's former Attorney General, Bob McDonnell, decisively defeated Democrat Creigh Deeds.

The Republican swell defeated Democrat Del. David Poisson who was seeking his third term as Virginia's 32nd House District representing Ashburn, Cascades, CountrySide and Sugarland Run.

Republican 'Tag' Greason netted 14,520 votes to Poisson's 10,723 in Tuesday nights unofficial totals from the Loudoun County Electoral Board.

Meanwhile, in Republican Tom Rust's 86th Delegate District, voters in Sterling Park and Herndon returned their delegate to office, even though Loudoun's Dulles District Supervisor, Democrat Stevens Miller, made a strong showing.

Rust out-polled Miller in his Loudoun precincts 2,505 to 2,075 in immediate unofficial returns Tuesday night. In the districts Herndon precincts, Rust led Miller 1,843 to 1476 unofficially.

Rust's re-election will strengthen his influence in the House of Delegates when it convenes in January.

Miller was elected two years ago to his four-year term as county supervisor. In order to run for delegate and keep his job as supervisor, he had moved into the single precinct that is situated in both the Dulles supervisory district and the 86th Delegate District.

McDonnell, who resigned as the state's Attorney General earlier this year to run for governor, told the League of Women Voters that his priority as governor would be "Virginia's economy, creating jobs and re-training our workforce."

Deeds had pledged, especially in Northern Virginia, to "restore Virginia's economy by fixing transportation" as well as "investing in education, and giving a tax credit to any business that creates a job."

McDonnell will have Republican Bill Bolling as his Lieutenant Governor. Loudoun precincts followed the GOP trend giving Bolling 37,523 votes unofficially over 26,267 for Democrat Jody Wagner of Virginia Beach.

Republican Ken Cuccinelli carried Loudoun 37,628 to 26,253 for Democrat Steve Shannon, and will take office in January.

Approximately 36 percent of the county's 179,656 registered voters cast ballots Tuesday, according to election officials.
