Dems, all you talk about is abortion.

There are so many other issues at play here that many people will rank higher than abortion.  I would say voting for a Dem means the following:

Higher taxes, higher spending, continued failure at the  border and illegals immigration, increased crime and less enforcement, CRT in schools and DEI, higher energy prices, naming gas stoves (see NY and CA).  For the DEI, was it Oregon that dropped all graduation standards for kids being able to read/write and do math to graduate in the name of Equity?

Sure, you got abortion. But so many other economic issues to deal with.  [/quote]
Dude, Virginia’s in a budget surplus, no one is raising taxes. I hope whoever is paying you to be an anonymous troll gets their money back for your ignorant post.

But now that you bring up taxes,[b] Virginia has a surplus of money and schools still aren’t fully funded[/b]. GOP loves to talk up Parents Rights but not fund the schools?

Exactly. When you look at the actions, not just the words/lies, then any reasonable person who values public education should not be voting GOP.

Here's where VA Republicans stand on Education (taken from candidate website).

"[i]Candidate will ensure all Virginia schools remain safely open, expand access to more school choice, and increase funding for trade and vocational training.[/i]"

Nothing about raising teacher pay, fund supplies so teachers don't have to buy themselves, ensure schools have internet access... Just Open schools safely. [b]Are schools currently closed[/b]?

[/quote]

Did you miss the word "remain"?  The teacher unions, a major democratic constituency, has fought for closing schools in the past.  [/quote]

OMG, Virginia doesn’t have teachers unions!

Really, I hope whoever is paying you to trolls this board asks for a refund because you obviously are clueless![/quote]

Democrat lies!  Are you even capable of telling the truth?!?

“ We’re a Union of more than 40,000 teachers and school support professionals working for the betterment of public education in the Commonwealth.”

What a weird sidebar argument.

Unions are GOOD things. We need more stronger unions. Teachers unions are GOOD things. They'll protect the integrity of our public schools from radical Republicans who want stupid policies like vouchers and other things that destroy public education.

:lol: 
So now you're pivoting from "VA doesn't have teachers' unions!!" to "Teachers' unions are GOOD things!"  JFC, you people love to move the goalposts when you realize you're WRONG.
