It was all over the place with regards to the Presidential election. And yes we had a crap option or Trump.

Every election now is Bad vs Worse. Our country has completely gone down the tubes.

I held my nose to vote for Biden but it’s not happening again beyond that.

There needs to be checks and balances, there needs to be diversity of thought, there needs to be balance. It’s never going to be a perfect balance, but there needs to be some balance. Going too far on either side brings out the crazies.

There’s a pretty diverse slate of candidates for the Virginia Democratic nomination and everyone but my mother ran as a D for President. There are lots of options.

They are all to the left of Stalin

So vote for the candidate endorsed by the actual would be dictator.

Quit the theatrics with the ‘would be’ nonsense.

Trump is out. Move on.

We don’t need be constantly bombarded with this rhetoric that voting off the party line is some sort of treason and automatically brands us as Trumpers.

Keeping up this hysteria will only guarantee a Republican president next go around.

“Quit the theatrics”? That’s rich coming from the party of “they are all to the left of Stalin”.

If you support a Trumpy candidate (inexperienced businessman, “election integrity!”, Trump endorsement), be prepared for Trump comments. Has he denounced Trump or the insurrection like the Rs with a backbone? Nope.

You are an adult responsible for your own actions. If you vote GOP you only have yourself to blame. Grow a pair and own it.

All of that nonsense will come to VA if you elect Republicans. As Liz Cheney said, their denial of the legitimacy of the 2020 election is anti democratic and a threat to our country. Being mad at a local school board is not justification for electing Republicans to state or federal office. Vote Republican in the 2023 school board election if you’re angry with the current school board.

So now we are quoting the spawn of Darth Cheney as if she is some sort of moral beacon? She falls in the same category as Mitt Romney and the people involved with the Lincoln Project: people we like now because they don’t like the former President

For the record, the last thing we need is Terry McAuliffe back in control of anything.

So many better D options, and if one of them fails to beat McAuliffe in the primary, I can live with Youngkin for 4 years

WTH? That doesn’t make any sense. It’s scary what wackadoodle emotions drive people.

I’d like to see McClellan, but McAuliffe is another good option - he’s already demonstrated he’s a great leader. Most people will remember life was good when he was governor.

Certainly better than someone who is pushing “election integrity” crap.

+1

Youngkin is pushing “election integrity” as a big issue.

That was a different poster.

Yes, I’m a grown ass adult. I’ve voted in many elections, lived through 8 presidents, and in 2 states under Republican and Democratic governors.

I’ve also learned that no one person is ever going to be perfect.

And that being pragmatic and realistic and thinking individually is always better than just following the crowd.

Telling me to grow a pair is childish. I own my thoughts, I own my opinions, and I own my vote.

Are you against election integrity? We have this basic premise of democracy... one person, one vote. I would think that it is something everyone would support.

If you own your vote, you need to think big picture. And big picture, R wins this year absolutely can lead to a Republican Congress overturning the 2024 election.

[Anonymous]

Election integrity sounds all well and good. But it is code for voter suppression

[Anonymous]

We have election integrity already. There was no widespread fraud — we did have a PA vote for trump with his dead mother’s name and NC man kill his wide and use her ballot to vote for trump — but no widespread fraud. Republican election commissioners and Republican governors have stated there was no fraud, along with tons of courts. There is zero reason to focus in “election integrity” except to continue the the big lie and conspiracy theories. Why would I want a Governor who signs onto that anti-democratic nonsense?

I own my vote, I own my thoughts, I own my opinions.

There is more to the ‘big picture’. Throwing out a possible scenario as a way to manipulate others into one thought pattern is exactly the type of mentality I’m sick of.

It makes plenty of sense. If a more sensible D doesn’t lock up the nomination, I will support Youngkin over carpetbagger and Clinton bagman McAuliffe.

Life was good when he was Governor? Hahahahahaha! You are really laying it on thick here

And what do you have against election integrity?

[Anonymous]

you're a rube if you think "election integrity" is just about free and fair elections and rules.

I'm guessing your "more sensible D" looks a lot like a MAGA.

He's a proven good governor. Better than a spineless nutter with no experience.

So you own your vote, but comments from random anonymous posters on a mommy board will make you change your vote.

OK......
