We had people come to our house at least 10 times (even though we kept saying we would vote and they didn't have to come back) and I received 5 mailings from random people encouraging me to vote. It was pretty crazy.

And yet? My very liberal husband is voting R this time around for school board and some other positions because he's really angry about One Fairfax and the hubris surrounding the policy. He told my son that he should do the same.

Yup, even my mom, who was a hippie in the 1960s and is a lifelong activist and donor to so many organizations beloved by Democrats, voted Republican for the school board this time.

I don’t give two craps who you voted for school board. Please tell me you voted Dem for your star senator and delegate!

We had just a D on our ballot for senator. I wrote in an R. Delegate also an R. Sorry

Well if you are my district (Favola and Murphy) I’m not concerned.

So amazing to live in a progressive, true blue Commonwealth. The Virginia Way is over. A great day for tenants rights, consumer rights, gay rights, choice, racial justice, and so much more. So long, moderate losers!!

Virginia doesn’t have party registration.

Well this thread was buried or I would have put it here. So sorry to open a new thread. It looks like Democrats now control all the government of Virginia.

It looks as though Democrats will win control of the General Assembly. Senate 23-18 and House of Delegates 52-46. Virginia may finally be able to pass the ERA! https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/11/05/us/...irginia-general-elections.html

This state has been trending progressive for awhile. Gerrymandering held it up. S’long GOP.

Another Marylander who heartily agrees. For once I am happy to see you all in the left lane.

Among the flipped seats from R to D:

Shelly Simonds, whose race in HD-94 (Newport News) last time was a tie resulting in the drawing from the bowl
Martha Mugler in HD-91 (Hampton)
John Bell in SD-13 (you’ve seen enough ads to know this is Loudoun/Prince William)
Josh Cole in HD-28 (Fredericksburgish east of 95)
Clint Jenkins in HD-76 (Suffolk)
Ghazala Hashmi in SD-10 (suburbs west of Richmond)

This is the best part about the state election. Hope there is a lot of pressure to end gerrymandering.
