Check your voter registration card, but yes, most likely you vote in the same place you usually do.

I disagree. Her position on guns and taxes in particular is completely contrary to the wishes of her constituents.


You honestly think that most voters want higher taxes?

Please comment further. What makes you think this?


Dan Helmer = has horrible campaign ads (check out his "you lost that centrist feeling" entry), likened Trump to Osama Bin Laden (although the majority of the district dislikes Trump, this rhetoric is not appealing), basically 100% gun control focused campaign, and would be a democratic man vs. a republican women matchup in the general election, subsequently some suburban women would vote for Comstock as a woman.

Friedman = semi-carpetbagger (I think she moved from DC a year ago), very California focused support and donations (she has the endorsement of Alyssa Milano and other Hollywood people that have nothing to do with NoVA), and from many reports, not charismatic.

Stover and Wexton both seem like good choices. Stover is authentic and actually lives (and has lived) in the district. Wexton is an elected official who has a significant base of support in Loudoun county. Comstock lost Loudoun by 1 point in the 2016 race. Wexton can rack up votes there like Northam did last year.


Wexton had some pro-NRA votes as a state senator. No thanks. I am definitely voting for Friedman. She is very anti-NRA, and that is the #1 issue for me.

I hope you're voting for comstock because you'd be ok with her possibly winning. I'd hate to see terrible options on the ballot like the last presidential election.



Yes, voted for her for state delegate, and twice for Congress.


Why else would I vote for her? She's doing a good job for the most part. She is representing her constituents.

Friedman put in $1 million of her own money for her campaign.

Alison has a lot of money from outside due to connections

I am not too worried about fundraising - once a candidate is picked, funds will definitely come for this race

Friedman has raised more money than the next 2 primary candidates combined. Whether we like it or not, that is going to matter in November. Lindsey is 4th out of 6 in fundraising.

Lindsey, for sure Babs has got to go.
