Virginia Mega Thread: The Youngkin Administration

[Sestak]

McAuliffe is paying him to do this and you can’t convince me otherwise.

[Sestak]

Not been following this too much but it does seem to me all the pollsters except Fox have been herding hard towards the McAuliffe +1-2 area. So make of that what you will.

[Sestak]

Republican organization pretends to be Democrats trying to pull a bad faith political stunt that would only serve to make Dems look bad. Absolutely horrific tactics from the Youngkin campaign and the Lincoln Project. I call on all Republicans with integrity to condemn them both.

[Sestak]

what is it about this state that brings out the worst in Atlas? Always VA, I swear...

[Sestak]

I am declaring victory. I have been elected Governor of Virginia.

RoboKing RoboKing RoboKing!!!

[Sestak]

Youngkin is probably ahead but these exits..welll…..


JUNK IT

[Sestak]

If the exits indicate Youngkin +1 or +2 then that probably isn't going to equal a win if you believe that this exit poll is not good.

Yeah, because don't these polls only take into account in person voting?

No.

They don’t exactly adapt to mail voting well, though. See California recall exits for instance.

[Sestak]

Apparently Chesterfield has no absentee vote in?

[Sestak]

Lmao should have known this would come down to Schroedinger’s Early Vote

[Sestak]

So Kornacki and Wasserman have reversed positions? Lmao

[Sestak]

I will never forget NSV harassing me all over this forum after I was off (like everyone else) in the CA recall.

Like everyone else? Some of us called both this race and CA correctly.

Wow, very good result for Youngkin in Zogby. He’s almost as dominant in the state as Romney was!

[Sestak]

Notably, the Washington Post endorsed Dehghani-Tafti, but also endorsed both Nuttall and Descano.

Did you mean Nutall and Lancaster? Or did they pull a "we endorse Warren and Klobuchar" type thing?

[Sestak]

All incumbent CA's are ahead so far; Loudoun seems done while Fairfax/Arlington are less than halfway in.

Chap Petersen is slightly down very early in the count. Joe Morrissey is trailing almost 70-30 with half the vote in; he looks finished.


(I know the latter isn't NoVa but I don't see anywhere else to discuss the state's results)

[Sestak]

Looks like Deeds holds on?
