Virginia Mega Thread: The Youngkin Administration

[Comrade Funk]

This is over. Clinton 2016 strategy redux fails.

[Woody]

Question for Republicans:

If Youngkin wins, why didn’t Democrats steal this election?

Because they didn't realize he sucked so much that it was needed.

[NOVA Green]

Any estimates of final VA GOV TO?

MSNBC estimating 41% in 1.3 Million...

[DaleCooper]

Honestly this whole election seems like Dems (especially moderate-to-mainstream dems) suck at messaging episode 2875

No, the Dems' message sucks. Don't do the Rachel Bitecofer thing where you assume everybody secretly agrees with the Democratic Party's progressive platform and if they just talked about their positions better then they'd win everything. It's not true.

Golden Standard TRAFALGAR did it again!

[Badger]

Highland almost all in.  GOP +7

Jaichind with these various county GOP gains numbers you are posting, I assume you are comparing from 2017, not from 2020?

[NOVA Green]

Not sure why they haven’t called it for Youngkin yet? Where’s TMAC supposed to make up the deficit?

Tons of NOVA isn't in.

and EVs elsewhere as well...

Uhm, there are Democratic areas outstanding and the Republican areas are wrapping up quicker. It's not time to make a call. Just because you want a call doesn't mean the media should make one.

[Woody]

Hopefully this will teach Democrats from ever spouting about CRT again.

[TheTide]

Youngkin up by about 10.5% with two-fifths in statewide. Fairfax still only a third in. DDHQ.

[Inmate Trump]

I turned off coverage to watch the World Series. Braves better win this!

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

Youngkin ahead in Danville 50-49 with 7k votes in (per WA Post).

Republicans are literally the only ones I ever hear talk about it.

VPAP a bit behind, but saying 40% of Election Day is in, but only 10% of early vote is in

Sure but he’s not doing well enough in NOVA to overturn the deficit.

Booooooo!!!!!!!!

'Stros in Seven, baby!

[Mr. Illini]

Lefties prematurely dancing on McAuliffe’s grave is pretty rich.

Maybe next time they’ll get their wish and a real progressive will be nominated and lose Virginia by 35 points.

[Brittain33]

Guys, I think that one-year period away from the forum is over.

Their problems are much deeper than that.

Right. I have not heard one Democrat talk about critical race theory unless it is to say that it isn't being taught in K-12 schools. The lies that Republicans tell.

From 2017.  Trump is a uniquely bad fit for VA so I always compare to 2017.

Kornacki says 16K mail-ins are left in Loudon to count

[Pheurton Skeurto]
