I agree with this. The far left dems are the ones who let Youngkin win, by creating an entire class of dissatisfied parents who watched kids suffer all last year while the never-open crowd prevailed. Just the number of Youngkin signs in blue Arlington told the story.

And to all of you who are like "we were just surviving a pandemic" you are missing that schools in many places were open last year without causing huge spread. Data supports this. School was safe. Private schools in Arlington were open without major outbreaks, while APS was basically closed for business. Kids suffered. I didn't vote for Youngkin, and Terry's horrible campaign and huge school gaffe are also reasons he lost, but I get why enough people did to cause this outcome.[/quote]
 
Seems like lots of overlap with Trump voters (22k) and Youngkin voters (21k).

Youngkin didn’t win in Arlington. He won VA by spinning up voters across the state with GOP lies. McAuliffe had a bad campaign and didn’t energize D voters.

Yes, we know you’re SO MAD at APS. But it’s been a year+. Time to drop the irrational nonsense and focus on learning loss. Time to move forward.

Gubernatorial year electorate is completely different so you can't look at raw vote #s. % spread in Arlington shifted 10% R from 2020, and 7% from 2017.  [b]And we know many left-leaning parents, especially in Northern Virginia and other metro areas with school closures, voted R for the first time for Youngkin.[/b]

We're actually going to have a governor who will make sure school systems focus on learning loss. Many of them seemed to be not focused up to try to cover up the results of their incompetence from last year.[/quote]

No, not in Arlington.

Youngkin is not going to do anything to help our schools. He may harm schools by depleting budgets for “school choice”. [/quote]
And don't forget his pledge to end state income and grocery taxes.[/quote]
