Too little too late. They reelected a coonman blackface anti-life anti self defense governor.

Correction. You can't run for consecutive terms in Virginia.

Coonface is a first termer and he WILL be out in 2021 UNLESS the cuck legislature amends the Virginia term limits, which they have tried to do, but failed.

Anyway come what may Coonface won't be back until 2025 at the earliest.

Correct.

Many here promote the idea that Virginia should be abandoned.

That the Commonwealth has fallen, and we should retreat to higher ground.

NO

This is where we make our stand. This is THE SWAMP.

THIS IS WHERE THEY LOSE

VICTORY OR DEATH

Many here want to abandon everything. Every purple state that went blue, every European nation who didn't elect somebody far enough right win. It's this bizarre fatalist mentality. We don't abandon, we need to go on the offensive!

So thats good, not a blowout but definitely a sign people on our side are pissed, and actually going to vote, in Trumps favor no doubt.

It pissed me off that the City of Petersburg did that same shit to all three of their elementary schools. Big waste of money for a city that is already struggling with money and is like 20 million in debt.

A lot of places barely went to Killary, And barely flipped blue in 2018 due to Mueller keeping the Russia Russia Russia nonsense alive. Bet most of those go GOP now.

Scott is a good man. He should come to NH. Lots of Trump signs everywhere, far more than 4 years ago and despite going blue in 2016 by a narrow margin. This state can be flipped without a doubt

He should come to NH. Lots of Trump signs everywhere

The absolute lack of enthusiasm for the Democrats during the primary season was amazing to me. My commute includes Rockingham and Hillsborough counties and I saw very few political signs in people's yard. I discount those posted on public land or highway on/off ramps since it doesn't (IMO) reflect people's commitment

Agree, the northeast had a smattering of Bernie signs and little else - personally saw as many "any functioning adult / 2020" signs (which is comical but whatever).

Lowest enthusiasm I've ever seen for a primary.

It's too bad in November this city will have 120% participation.

All politics is local.. as long as the GOP keeps gaining local seats and fights at all levels for any gains of any kind it's a good thing. Dems can't afford to keep losing local races. If a party loses local seats they lose momentum and power.

My county went all Republican for the first time ever in 2018. We had a Dem sheriff and Judge all that was left. The Sheriff retired and his suck up replacement got destroyed and the Judge switched parties for a kick and got hammered. The guy who won is from the county to the east of us and he never campaigned one time here.. she was that hated.

This is a pretty big deal because that county voted for Obama both in 2008 and 2012 and Hillary in 2016. It was a deep blue and it flipped red. So did its neighboring blue county.

However, it's VA so they actually had local elections on May 20 and that's out of step with the rest of the nation.

Staunton is not in Northern VA, it's in the middle of the Shenandoah Valley.

The college in that town changed from being an all-girls school to being coed in I think 2016 or 2017. Coincidence? Maybe. Maybe not.

I went there. Mary Baldwin College. Got run into the ground by libs and recruitment of students who couldn't pay the impossibly high private tuition. It was a great place once. No more.

Nearby Wayesboro also put two conservatives, Lana Williams and Bruce Allen, on their city council to “give conservatives a working majority,”

Does it matter why? Everyone knew guns were going to be a huge factor in a few states

That’s not true, blue New Jersey has a couple second amendment Sanctuary counties and townships. It’s spreading everywhere. Also the coronavirus scare caused a 400% increase in gun sales, and those weren’t just conservatives buying guns. There were a lot of first time gun buyers learning how hard it actually is to get a gun. And finding out that Democrat politicians are lying about it.

As a Northern VA pede, I can tell you this unfortunately doesn't mean much for November. Northern VA & Richmond basically decide this states outcome, both of which are about as dark blue as you can get unfortunately. This is one of those states where the entire map is red except for some dark blue splotches, yet the entire state goes blue because of it.

TMPRKO 4 points ago +4 / -0

That's not uncommon. There is no such thing as a blue state. Only blue cities

2
Slash78 2 points ago +2 / -0

That's why the rural and medium cities need to be pushed and explored.. a lot of people who could vote don't come out when they are needed to in VA.

Trump did pretty solid there in VA considering everyone counted him out and he didn't do much.. if he puts some effort in this time on the backburner who knows. Plus internal dissent's growing. His surprise effort there in 2016 was when I knew he had a serious shot to win.. Hillary didn't win until very late and that wasn't good for the libs. So priceless that was.

Goldeneye007 0 points ago +1 / -1

Internal dissent may be growing yeah, mainly because of the gun laws, however Northam's approval rating is too, and rapidly, despite all the controversy around him and how slow he's been to act on a lot of the virus nonsense. This, to me, shows that there is still a large amount of dems/idiots in this state.

Also, Northern VA was the fastest growing region of the country over the past couple of years, however the rest of VA was one of the fastest to decline. In other words, NOVA (blue) gets bigger, the rest of VA (Red) gets smaller.

With this trend I think it's very unlikely we see a Red VA for a long time, if ever. It's getting up there with CA & NY in the near impossible to flip club.

Edit: correction, it was Columbia SC on our way to Virginia where we saw it.

No lie, when we were up there visiting family, there was an Obama gas station. The only markings were the name OBAMA and pictures of his face. It was surreal. I think my wife still has pictures somewhere.

Aren't city councils non partisan? I mean sure...everyone has their political leaninings...But how is it determined these seats went from blue to red? Sources familiar with the council members bar talk? What is this?

1
TMPRKO 1 point ago +1 / -0

Why would a city council be non partisan? The only official non partisan elections here are district and superior court judges but they're still endorsed by their party and everyone knows who they are

Republicans took democrat seats that are suppose to be safe. It means democrat voters are flipping.
