I'm guessing this shift is being caused by older millennials (1980-1988) settling down and starting families?
This might be good news for Republicans in 2020. I believe that conservatives become politically active later in life compared to liberals and that this point usually starts with when they start settling down and have a family.
Uh no, this is anything but good news for Republicans. See Loudon and Prince William County, VA voting patterns over the last 20 years for more.
NOVA is socially liberal like the rest of the Northeast States that's why its voting for Dems.
Now Virginia is part of the "Northeast" - my how times have changed. What happens when the Atlanta suburbs start pushing the state blue, will the Northeast just extend all the way to Florida?
Well at the Presidential Level its a Northeast State now because of NOVA. At the State Level its different.
No it will just be "The East Coast" instead of "The Northeast" that extends all the way to Florida at the Presidential Level except for SC maybe.
