Virginia Mega Thread: The Youngkin Administration

[junior chįmp]

RIP Democratic Party. That is all. Lol.

If Phil Murphy loses, I’m reregistering as an independent tomorrow.

Just give up on the Dem party. Its not worth saving. I gave up a while time ago when they decided to nominate a corpse as their standard bearer

Quick question....

Any intelligent poster here know how Virginia counts Provisional Votes?

Are they included in the initial results, set aside to be counted later, etc....?

Since nobody responded.... here is a follow-up question as someone who has lived in an exclusively VbM state for many years:

How does VA have ballot drop box locations staged?

For example: We voted today in OR and because my wife was working and the only thing on our ballot was an initiative to add $$$ for the local Sheriff's department, we weren't pressed to vote early and my wife dropped them off at a ballot box in the neighboring county.

Naturally these votes would not be included in the initial returns but will be added to the final returns, since dropping a ballot in a designated drop site by 8:00 PM on election Night is considered the vote delivered into the hands of the State Elections division, regardless of whatever county you are living in.

IDK how VA is on all this, especially since they are relatively new to VbM and all that, but I could imagine if VA law is similar there could be potentially 10-20k same day ballots in the most heavily populated regions of VA such as NoVA, metro Richmond, and Tidewater....

So, it looks like the HoD will end up being 50-50... which means a power sharing agreement.

Not saying Biden is in his best shape, but he’s in the best mental and physical shape a 78 year old can be

We can’t just have the Republican Party become the new nobility, though. Maybe a better alternative will appear.

Wrong, as evidenced by Bernie Sanders.

Fox says there's a path for TM, although narrow.  They can't call it.

I'd give you an answer if I knew.
What you said *sounds* like a plausible way for it to go. There's even a lag in counting on WA Post, so they could be sifting through those votes as we speak.
But we don't know for sure.

What does this mean for Youngkin's agenda, considering the Democrats are still in control of the state senate?

Can anyone else see Frederick County outside of Wshington Post and Politico. Do those results look right to you? I just checked both and they have it heavy for McAuliffe 69-30%. I think there is something wrong with Frederick County's numbers.

The Frederick result is an obvious mistake by nyt/wapo/politico. They have swapped the Youngkin/T-Mac votes. CNN and NBC have the correct vote tallies (69-30 for Youngkin). Which is also why the margin in the later two is almost 3 but below 2 points in the first three.

If Tortellini pulls this off it will solidify the argument that the GOP is far from dead in the suburbs.

Something is wrong with the Washington Post tracker. They have McAuliffe ahead in Frederick County 69% to 30%, when Trump won it with 62%.

NPR is the same.

     CNN has Youngkin ahead 69-30 in Frederick County.

86K margin now

The Democratic holds in the HoD are pretty damn impressive. Not one seat lost in Loudoun, PWC. Just one loss in VA Beach. Not one seat lost in suburban Richmond! If it weren't for a freak upset with supercharged Poquoson turnout Democrats would still have control!
