Democrat McAuliffe narrowly wins Virginia governor's race

Democratic businessman Terry McAuliffe defeated Republican Ken Cuccinelli to become Virginia's next governor after a contentious race that was closer than many political watchers anticipated.

With nearly all the votes tallied late Tuesday, McAuliffe edged out Cuccinelli by about two percentage points, with libertarian Robert Sarvis receiving around seven percent of the vote as a third-party candidate.

In his victory speech Tuesday night, McAuliffe pledged – in a show of bipartisanship - to reach out to every Republican in the state assembly before taking office.

Rob Ford rack scandal

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford finally admitted Tuesday he has used crack cocaine, five months after news reports surfaced that he was caught on video purportedly smoking from a crack pipe.

Whether Ford had used the illegal drug was a key question in the video scandal surrounding the mayor of Canada's largest city. But numerous other questions remain unanswered, including: 

On May 16, U.S. gossip website Gawker.com and the Toronto Star published stories about a video allegedly showing the mayor smoking from a crack pipe. Both media outlets said the video was being shopped around by an unnamed source.

A photo was distributed to both media outlets showing the mayor alongside Smith, who was shot and killed on March 28. Two other men in the photo were subsequently arrested in a series of predawn police raids targeting guns and gangs in the city's west end.

The photo is believed to have been taken outside 15 Windsor Rd., a building police suspect was a crack house and where Fabio and Elaine Basso reside. Fabio is Ford's friend.

Rob Ford wants free admission

I lived in Saskatchewan from 1985 to 1991, when the stench of Colin Thatcher was still thick in the air.

Saskatchewan is a small province and Regina is a small town; every morning on my way to work I had to pass by the house where his wife used to live.

I was working for the CBC then. Thatcher was doing everything in his power to get out in jail , and there were appeals and manoeuvres , and the dates of these things came and went , and we reported them all.

It was , in retrospect , like watching a snake that had been run over by a car.

Will the 'Call of Duty: Ghosts' beat out 'Grand Theft Auto 5'

$800M in a day. I thought it was a typo when I first read that Grand Theft Auto 5 had sold that many copies in 24 hours. Call of Duty: Ghosts has a steep hill to climb if Activision wants to regain its collection of sales record crowns from Take Two and Rockstar, and now here on release day, the question is…can they do it?

Call of Duty has consistently surprised everyone with each iteration constantly outselling the last, at least initially. Every year, day one totals grew larger and larger, ultimately culminating in Black Ops 2′s colossal $500M first day haul that seemed like it could never be touched. Until Grand Theft Auto 5, that is.

'The Voice' recap

It's finally time for viewers to have their say on The Voice, as the show went live for the first time this season with the top 20 artists competing for America's vote.

The three-night extravaganza – which culminates with the top 12 being revealed on a special Thursday night episode – began as frenemies Blake Shelton and Adam Levine squared off with their respective teams. And Team Adam came out the clear winner.

While Adam has started off strong in the past, he's often lost his grip by making questionable song choices or creating oddball arrangements for his contestants, handing the competition over to Blake's winning approach. But if The Voice wants to stay compelling, that won't happen this season. Indeed, Team Adam seems to once again be teeming with talent.
