You’re voting R for state legislature to spite local Ds? And willing to throw away women’s rights to do so? |
This whole “you have to vote for all Ds or else you are voting to throw away women’s rights” argument is tiresome. Here’s a thought, maybe Ds should take a look in the mirror and realize their stances on crime and schools aren’t popular and adjust accordingly, instead of relying on guilting voters into supporting them based solely on the abortion issue. |
Maybe Rs should stop trying to oppress women (and others). I was asking PP to clarify if she’s changing her vote at the state level if she’s angry at the local level. |
That’s your big problem: Democrats’ “stances on crime and school” are PLENTY popular. And the results of elections around the country since Dobbs shows emphatically that abortion is the overriding concern for voters. Moreover, the fear-based crime messaging only works on uneducated voters. Voters here roll their eyes at the suggestion that there’s a crime problem in the mean streets of Warrenton or Culpeper or Lorton or wherever. |
Re-read your prior post, that’s quite a bit of revisionist history 🙄 |

+1 Plus, we’ve seen the data. Republican states have higher murder rates. |
Keep telling yourself that the way Dems are handling crime is popular. Loudoun County parents love the direction their schools have taken too. My town doesn’t have a crime problem, and I don’t want the streets of my town/county to become like DC or even MoCo, so I’m fine with keeping the status quo at our local level with Rs. But keep pushing the abortion issue as the single issue that voters should base their decision on. -signed an educated voter with a law degree |
Yup, DC is doing fantastic.

How convenient that you left out the abortion rant part of your previous post. |
Thanks, I will. Because it’s the winning issue. You go on believing phantom menaces if you need to. My house/ex’s household have already produced 8 votes for Dems in Loudoun. That is me, my two college age children who came home to vote early, my girlfriend, my ex and her boyfriend and his two adult children. The Republican messaging here is a complete loser. Crime isn’t a problem, we know full well this is about abortion and Youngkin’s future political ambitions, and we intend to take back our public schools from the lunatics obsessed with marginalizing at-risk students and banning books. |
It’s absolutely part of the consideration of voting R at the state level. PP hasn’t answered one way or the other. Maybe she’s only voting R at the local level. |
Some R cities have very high crime rates ^^ |
At the state level, absolutely. Voting R at the state level means you’re ok if the Rs ban abortion. Instead of complaining about people stating that fact, own your decision. |
Well said. |
