Right now it seems like a guaranteed D hold, but that could still change.

When one of the biggest questions going in is whether or not Chesterfield County votes GOP, this is well on its way to becoming a rather boring race.

Margins may be closer than 2017, but no way do I see the outcome changing (And yes I'm aware Carter/Fairfax have a non-insignificant chance of being nominated).

Chesterfield County is almost certainly going to vote for the Republican candidate. The question is by how much.

Wow, how exciting.

All I know is that the Virginia GOP better hope they'll win Chesterfield County in a B I D E N M I D Q U A R T E R T E R M or else they're in for a horrible decade or two.

Chesterfield voted for Biden/Warner by 7, it will not vote Republican.

7 points isn't that much of a margin to make up. It's certainly possible, although I doubt it'll happen. If there is suburban reversion, I would think it's more likely to happen near Richmond than in NoVA.

Well Henrico County is more Democratic slightly than Loudoun or Prince William in most elections and I dont believe there is a county wide Republican in Henrico.

I may have been to dramatic in saying that Chesterfield will vote for the GOP candidate. But the GOP is favored slightly there in November.

I have seen Chesterfield County compared to St. Charles County Mo. I strongly disagree with that comparison. Chesterfield is nearly 30% black and is more educated.

And even if it did vote Republican, I'd find anything less than R+5 to be devastating for the Virginia GOP (As if they weren't devastated already).

The R candidate probably needs to win Chesterfield by 10 to take the state, given how little improvement they can make on Trump's numbers in the rural Western part of the state.

Even Northam won Chesterfield in 2017 by half a point,  and the trends have certainly not gotten any better for Republicans there over the past 4 years.   It's gone for the GOP.

Even if Jimmie is right in his 99% certainty of Chesterfield County voting GOP this November, there should be no cause for celebration if they win it by like 3-5%. It'd be like celebrating John Cox' campaign if he ended up winning Orange County by 0.2%.

And if it does vote GOP, I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being a kind of "last hurrah" for the foreseeable future.

I have no idea! But the interesting thing about this is, I was watching it live and he was slowly and eagerly building his way up to saying that, and you just knew he was planning to say something really stupid in the seconds ahead. It's worth going back and watching (it was in the final 10-15 minutes I think).

Lmao, Fairfax is an embarrassment who should have been forced to resign back in 2019. Can't wait for T-Mac to clobber him in the primary.

And to think that this guy was supposedly a "rising-star" once upon a time? What an absolute, utter twat.

Why was there even a 3-year-long implementation delay scheduled in the first place?

Well, McAuliffe endorsed Northam all the way back in 2016, so it makes sense that he's now returned the favor.

Yup, but if my memory is correct, McAuliffe was among the calls for Northam's resignation during the blackface scandal. But seems like that is over and by objective measures, Northam is a decent gov.
