From another PP:

John Couvillon is tracking early voting
Chaz Nuttycomb is a must follow for Virginia politics
and of course Dave Wasserman

I checked this morning and Couvillon says Dems are still trailing their usual EV turnout - 1 million early voters so far and 2.7 million total votes in 2017. Nuttycombe says the odds of Youngkin winning are '60% and no higher'. That seems pretty high to me?

Wasserman retweeted his May post:

No scandals will result in the R's winning. NOVA is so blue that D's across board will coast to victory.

Did I say any scandals would? I asked for more early vote or poll accounts to follow for the Virginia race. The ones posted by another person, who are non-partisan, indicate Youngkin is winning.

Remember the California recall:
Republicans were way more excited and enthusiastic about voting. But the results were lopsided in the end.

VA has a lot more Republicans than ÇA. But enthusiasm doesn’t tell the whole story. I think Macca pulls it out, but it will be close.

The California recall had Elder as an opponent. His own 20 years of crazy ideas sunk his campaign. McAuliffe trying to tarnish Youngkin with the same brush isn't working.

Yes, I think the polls are showing a race that's too close to call or are favoring Youngkin.

Polls have been useless lately. I don't put any stock in these polls now either. We'll know on November 3.

California also is almost entirely democrat.

Right - well I'm not one to bury my head in the sand.

Teachers' unions are not experts. Teachers unions are out to promote themselves--not the teachers and not the schools, and definitely not the students.

Experienced Teacher who learned this in my first year of teaching. Never saw anything over the years to change my mind.

Oh yeah? Where do you teach? In a public school system, or some kind of unaccredited bible-thumper private? I’m betting the latter based on your absurd post. It reads like typical anti-union trash talking points.


Union teachers are the only bulwark standing between society and the brainwashed spawn being raised and indoctrinated by their rightwing loon parents. If it weren’t for public school teachers offsetting all these idiot parents and their lunacy, we’d be up to our eyeballs in school age little fascists. Teachers are typically the only people exposing these kids to Progressive ideals and questioning the nonsense these children are being fed at home.

Their top 2 non-individual donors are Dem/liberal affiliated PAC's.

If you ever look at the picture of Kimberly Adams, you would know what is wrong with teacher's units.

Because no one cares. It’s not like some crime was committed or there was an attempted overthrow of the election like on Jan 6, this was just a peaceful political demonstration. Right-wingers are wound up about it but most people don’t care because they’re not that interested in politics.

Huge crowd in Old Town this morning at 8:00 for Youngkin. Just FYI

Once again DCUM delivers a post that sits right astride the clueless idiot/troll line.

Schools work for the citizens. It isn't up to a union of teachers or anyone else to decide which values to push on students in a public school.

No, it’s not. Not even close. Why do you say things that are so clearly demonstrably false?
