Don’t forget “Veterans” and “Stand with Ukraine” (by cutting off all aid to Ukraine).


Your a moron.

She is an immigrant from Ukraine. She has lots of family still there. So I think the Stand With Ukraine issue is legit. She will support them much more than any Dem will….


Once she casts her vote for speaker, the opposite is true

How exactly? She is a member of the Republican Party. The Republican Party has several members who are pro-Putin. How is voting for her "standing with Ukraine?"


So your reasoning is that if 10-20 republicans support withdrawing aid to Ukraine, every Republican In the whole country also wants the same thing? Just like if 10-20 democrats support defunding the police, the. Every Democrat in the country must as well???

Your reading is flawed. But nice try.

Yep, Republicans have been pretty clear they oppose aid to Ukraine.

I understand you typically vote Republican, but Beyer is a long time business owner, and not extreme left, with a good record on constituent services (there's another thread on this). I think you can feel comfortable with a Beyer vote.


This. Even her 11 yrs at NG (go look at LinkedIn) is now a vacuous and disingenuous "Innovation, Business, and Strategy Leader" because she wasn't even a manager there, let alone a leader.

Because republicans don't run serious candidates in that district. I remember when I was in law school, they ran our west law rep

She has very little info on her stance on issues. I did see on her FB page that she is pro-trans (not just pro marriage equality, which I think most people believe in). I’m surprised Youngkin is campaigning with her. Does anyone know more about her stance on policies? Is there anything really awesome about her that would draw me back to the Republican ticket? I’m not a big fan of Beyer, but he did help build the levy in my community for his poorer constituents to help with flooding, so he has done some good.


Sure, you are a Republican! Look, Beyer is going to win by a landslide. I know this is part of your staff responsibility to trash other candidates, but why are you bothering with Lipsman? Do something more productive with your time.


DP. I voted for Lipsman, but Beyer is a former business owner and is not one of the crazy progressives, so when/if he wins, I can live with his moderating influence on the Democratic side of things. But I do wish Lipsman the best, it is nearly impossible for a Republican to win in NoVa.

I could not find anything on her website to indicate she supports LGBTQ+ rights, so perhaps you can provide a citation for that claim.


I can’t seem to post a screenshot of the article, but it was on her FB page. In the month of October.

Her family is from Ukraine, but they identify with the Ukrainian Russians (likely why her family left) which is why she wants to stop aid to Ukraine. At the county fair I was handed (by her) a leaflet outlining all of her stances. while she seems like a nice person, I disagreed with most(if not all) of her positions. There were lots of phrases like "parents should have more say in education" which I disagree with, I do not have a degree in education. I recall she was anti immigration too which I thought was odd since that is how here family got here. From my experience she is Very far right. I am not, but I do consider all candidates. She would have no say in missing middle.

Lots of republican candidates who are immigrants or the children of immigrants are anti-immigration.

Make sure you qualify “immigration”

I am also a Legal Immigrant from Europe. We got visas to come to the US and waited out turn to earn citizenship. We had relatives who had to immigrate to Israel since they could not get permission or a visa to come to the US. They followed the rules and settled there, although they would have preferred to come here.

We followed the rules, waited out turn, am now a Citizen.

I have no sympathy for Illegal Immigrants coming over the southern border and rushing millions of people into this country.

She said in an interview that she feels Biden should have taken action to prevent Putin from invading Ukraine in the first place (although she doesn’t know what), but now that Putin has invaded, the US should not continue funding the Ukrainian defense effort.

Beyer has been around for a long time. Once someone like him gets dug in they become stagnate. He is just your run of the mill old white guy. But I guess it makes sense bc most of the people who turn out to vote are old white people.

I don't know a single thing that Beyer is doing now or will do different or even try to do. He is just complacent, like the show of politics and has money
