If Lee Carter wins HD-50 I'm legit going to cry tears of joy.

Thoughts:

-Wouldn't be surprised if Barbara Comstock announces her retirement within the month.

-Precious sweet beautiful boy Lee Carter <33333!!!

-Fun Tidbit: Of the 3 Democrats, the one who did best in SWVA was Justin Fairfax.

-Bob Marshall getting blown the f**k out by a trans heavy metal singer who he refused to debate and referred to as "it" is one of the most satisfying victories I'll ever witness.

Btw I'll happily eat crow on saying Northam was running a terrible campaign. I get to say the sentence "A socialist beat the Majority Whip without any support from the Democratic Party or corporate donors" over and over again until I fall asleep tonight, I don't give a s**t.

Even if the House of Delegates is split, the Senate is still GOP so it doesn't change much. Dems will only need 1 seat in each in 2019 and with the GOP likely to stay unpopular, this shouldn't be too hard. Looking like a Democratic map in Virginia after 2020.

I think provisionals will pull D's ahead in HD-94, putting them at the magic 17.
