Wow. Toast
Just to remind everyone, The Lincoln Project is made up of Republicans.
And apparently a bunch of those Republicans really don’t like Youngkin..

Voucher money can go directly to kids already in private schools - just like it did in Indiana.
We don't hate public schools here. We're mad right now. But we don't hate public schools and we don't want to destroy them. We don't want vouchers.
That’s unfortunate since Glenn Youngkin specifically campaigned on school vouchers.
DP and I sure as hell want vouchers. I don’t think they destroy schools and I do think school choice is at least a step in the right direction. I’m a former IB public school teacher and I’d never want my kids going where I used to teach.
Of course they destroy schools. That's the point.
Well they do destroy the school that parents are desperate to get out of, but, good.
If you’ve never sent your kids to or worked in that kind of school, you don’t get it. You are living in your GS10 bubble. But I’ve seen some shit and I would do anything to give those kids a lifeboat out of there.

Parents have had enough
I agree parents have had enough, but it’s not all about CRR and trans issues. Democrats closed schools for an entire year. People living in Virginia looked around at republican run states and saw their kids in school. With COVID not over and threats of new variants constantly talked about, no way do parents want another Democrat in charge.
Our area schools brought kids back in to the buildings around the same time as many other schools.
5-11 can get vaccinated within days.
Totally irrational decision making.
It was irrational for the Ds to have their head in the sand on how big of an issue this really was.

No. She only got 19,000 votes. He needed 120,000. I wish he had not conceded.
I just saw RWNJ fake news up in arms saying Fairfax is recounting. I've seen it no other place. I think it was preprogramed by a bot to post now.
60% of Virginians are racist Trumpsters.
So I guess say goodbye to choice, Gay marriage and legalized weed which would have brought in some tax money. What's his plan to replace grocery tax?
Apparently a lot of states don’t have a grocery tax.

+1. I don’t think they’ve directly address a single substantive policy question/issue. Just keep deflecting to irrelevant nonsense.
I didn’t see McAuliffe campaigns on issues. I saw a lot of ads that just tried to link Youngkin to Trump.

Thanks, Virginia - whether intentionally or through negelct, you've collectively given a monster a national platform. Sigh.
People calling Youngkin a monster and engaging in hysteria over a republican winning are part of the problem. No one is going to take Democrats seriously if they're constantly screaming about how every single Republican voter or candidate is a traitor or racist or anti-woman.
Yes the racist ticket that elected the first Black American woman Winsome Sears for Lieutenant Governor and Jason Miyares an Cuban Immigrant as Attorney General.
Miyares isn’t an immigrant.
He was conceived in Cuba and travelled to the US as a fetus.
Now that fetuses are people guess he can’t run for POTUS. He’s not even here legally - he was smuggled in.
