It is scary that so many have fallen for lies, conspiracy theories and propaganda instead of facts.

It is scary that we had a violent insurrection on our Capitol and people have fallen for Republican whitewashing and are fine to vote for a party that doesn’t care for America’s democracy.



You are absolutely wacko. Youngkin has nothing to do with Trump or January 6th. Going to vote for who I think is best for Virginia. Try your scare tactics somewhere else. They are getting old. Many people don't agree with you. The fact is I am not impressed at all with the Biden administration. Was hoping for so much more when I voted for him. No bringing together just more divisive rhetoric..


Except for the fact that there was a literal celebration of Jan. 6 at a Youngkin campaign event yesterday where Trump called in to reiterate his endorsement of Youngkin. You don’t include that in your campaign if aren’t embracing it.

And, the "rally" was not at the Capitol. Big difference.

Yes very worried. Have Obama, Jill Biden and Stacy Abrahms out on the trail with him. Will see if it works.


Interesting that he needs to bring in high profile people from outside VA to help drum up support.
Is Joe going to come and help him out? LOL.

Well Youngkin clearly needed Steve Bannon, so….

Let me know when Youngkin denounces it. Some of his surrogates, like Amanda Chase, were there.

You know, I get why you all want to back away slowly from this, but it was an event at which Trump endorsed Youngkin.

+1. All these unhinged posters on here just reinforce my vote is going to Youngkin.

No, Democrats are mostly worried about the Trump Republicans who are still pushing The Big Lie. They are changing state laws to allow partisans to throw out election results with zero evidence.

Supporting Youngkin means you think this is acceptable.


You are a loon. I’m one of the Democrats for Youngkin. I am COMPLETELY in favor of having to show ID to vote and very much agree with Youngkin on that topic. It’s INSANE to let people vote without ID. Anyone can walk up proclaiming they are anyone and vote? That is truly nutty and problematic. I think it’s also incredibly condescending to say that black people are too poor and stupid to bring an id to vote. Talk about racism. Give me a break!


FCPS has drafted revisions to its citizens speaking policy that would require speakers to provide IDs with proof of county residency, but somehow the Democrats on the School Board still decry any type of voter ID requirements as disenfranchisement.


BUT BUT BUT if you dare think for yourself or disagree with me about anything, you’re a trumping insurrectionist. Sorry, I won’t be bullied.


No. But own up to supporting a Trump candidate. You accept Trump and everything else the GOP is trying to do right now.


And don’t forget that McAuliffe is financially supported by Trump!! Remember the 2009 campaign donation of $25,000? Yep…McAuliffe is tied to Trump so keep that in mind. Thanks.

The idea that people will blindly vote Democrat for all eternity simply because there was once a guy named Trump is absurd. Particularly when the democrats are acting like residents of an insane asylum. Sorry, but I’m going to evaluate each candidate on their merits. In the case of Youngkin vs Mcoulough, I agree with Youngkin on schools, and for the past year+ schools have been the issue I care about due to closures, erratic schedule, inappropriate curriculum, etc etc. The beautiful thing about democracy is that, while I don’t feel comfortable sharing these sentiments in real life for fear of bullying, in a voting booth I get to do whatever I want!

Try again. This is not Dems vs Republicans at this point.

It is Democracy or Authoritarianism.

You were never a Dem because you would know Dems always have to clean up after Republicans.

Heatlh plan to get rid of ACA do you see it? Trump campaigned on that yet nothing.

Trump cost us over $519 Million in Election lies and counting I want those monies back.
Trump paid himself for 4 years stealing taxpayer dollars running up the bill for all his properties oh no Republicans fiscal responsiblity not to mention he raised the National Debt over $7.9 Trillion. Apparently you can not do math. Not billions Trillions!

Spare us your garbage posts liar

The Republican party is the party of Nazis and anyone voting for that garbage is a triator to the US>

EX Republican never again.

This is a big deal what do you not understand.

If Youngkin wins Nazism is main streamed.

If Youngkin wins schools in VA destroyed.

If Youngkin wins health care for Virginians trashed.

If Youngkin wins Trump wins what do you not understand about that?

Youngkin stands with Bannon, Trump, Flynn, and all the other liars and grifters sure that's wonderful for the State of Virginia.

Youngkin has zero policies he will gut the state for scamming Virginia taxpayers it will be awful.

At a Trump rally for a Republican gubernatorial candidate a MAGA crowd fanatically pledges allegiance to a flag that was carried by insurrectionists on January 6th.

Rally for Youngkin. Awesome Americans right?

The nazis did this with a flag that was at the beer hall putsch in Munich.

Youngkin's rally last night Nazi organized crapfest.

Trump - Glenn will "do all the things we want a governor to do."

Glenn - "I appreciate those comments"

Youngkin is a slicker Trump. UGH

Last night Youngkin held a rally that spread the Big Lie.

This disqualifies him period. Why would anyone vote for someone who believes the 2020 election was filled with fraud?

Youngkin has zero evidence there was fraud because there was none. Sid Powell herself has said that under oath in a court of law. Rudy the same. 64 courts agree.

And yet Youngkin embraces the lie. At the rally last night Trump continued to allege, once again, that the 2020 election was rigged against him. “We won in 2016,” he said. “We won in 2020, the most corrupt election in the history of our country, probably one of the most corrupt anywhere. But we’re gonna win it again.” Trump is a liar. Gaslighting and propaganda period.

While we all know all politicians lie on both sides of the aisle Youngkin's want to destroy America. We are a democratic country to destroy that means life as we know it gone.

Youngkin is the worst kind of candidate, a wolf in sheep's clothing.

McAuliffe didn’t raise your taxes as much as market forces increased your property tax bill because your home value has increased 10% every year since 2008.

And if you blame The Mac for your tax bill- you can also blame him for your real estate wealth and your job security here. You can also blame him for the tech boom that has no end in sight for the area. The fact that your kids probably will move back to the state because it’s more affordable than CA and less crazy than TX. Also, you can blame him for the Micron plant in Manassas and Amazon HQ2 and Reston.

And if you want to blame Democrats for your tax woes, you can also blame them for founding TJ, which has made NOVA schools some of the most covetable in the nation.

Oh and also blame them for our amazing state parks and our thriving oyster industry which has also cleaned up our Bay Area.

We will glad take the blame.
