We would all be much better off if she was president.

Folks…Yes is going to win fairly easily…but it’s funny to live your DCUM delusion.

Just like the morons who thought Sears had a chance.

This data also suggests that even within counties republicans are more likely to vote on this amendment than Dems. Unless turnout improves in democratic leaning areas, this amendment is likely to fail or it will be approved by a very slim margin.

Fauquier County has 75,000 people...Fairfax County has 1.15MM.

MAGAs suck at math.

They keep running the ads where he tell us "we're counting on you". Counting on me for what? To "restore rairness" to elections by disenfranchising my fellow Virginians? To stop "rigged elections" by rigging an election? To "protect democracy" by helping to destroy it?

It's amazing people still take this guy seriously. Hard NO for me too!

I am aware of that population difference, but this substantial variation in voter turnout rates also suggests a very large enthusiasm gap by party. If turnout is also higher among republicans within blue areas that could be enough to shift the vote margins for the state as a whole. I would not be so arrogant and assume that you are going to win something before it happens. The voting data looks very concerning for anyone that wants this measure to pass. The turnout gap has become larger since yesterday. It’s now 6% for Fauquier and 3% for Fairfax.

Relatively lower voter turnout among Dems could cause this amendment to fail by a very slim margin.

Fauquier county had 28% early voter turnout to 23% in Fairfax in the 2025 elections.

You are strangely implying that somehow the current 3% differential a month out from when the final vote is taken is I guess implying that the the differential %age difference will be 100%…which is likely not the case.

We all know how the 2025 elections ended up.

It's so funny to see MAGAs claim that there's some sort of disenfranchising occurring here (there isn't). It follows their typical pattern of accusing the other side of doing something that they're not doing in order to detract from the fact that you do it.

The fact that you automatically assume I'm MAGA (I'm not!) pretty much sums things up. But whatever. You reference an article about a case in LA? We're talking about THIS referendum in Virginia.

In 2020, we overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment that created a bi-partisan commission on redistricting. That was done during a general election with high voter turnout and it passed in a landslide. Fast forward to 2024 and across Virginia, about 51.5% of us voted D and about 47.5% of us voted R in congressional races. As a result, D's hold 6 seats and R's hold 5. Any reasonable person would conclude that it worked out pretty well. If passed, this amendment, being voted on in a special election with a very low projected turnout, would almost certainly make it 10 D seats and 1 R.

To deny that this move would not disenfranchise Virginians is absurd. Please take off your hype-partisan glasses.
