I'm not. I lean conservative and voted for Youngkin in 2021. However, I'm staunchly anti-Trump, and anti-MAGA, so Youngkin turned out to be a disappointment, and Winsome Earle-Sears would have been worse.

In 2025, I voted straight "D" at the top of the ticket, basically a vote against all the MAGA candidates. We need to rid politics of this pestilence and I'm glad to start the process in Virginia.

So, no regrets.

I'm not buying this shill post at all.

I'm the PP you're replying to, and my post is 100% true. You have no idea the damage Trump has done to the Republican Party.

The GOP hates their base. The party can die off.

We need a new rightwing party that puts the interests of their voters before their donors.

So, a nazi party?

It's not going to matter. Republicans will need about 40 seats. And even the "red" districts they created in Texas might not pan out the way they'd hoped.

Don’t get overconfident. I’m not going to feel safe until we’ve literally passed laws to ensure they cannot ever win again.

Not people who need “financial stability to support their families” - this is pretty much just feel-good virtue signaling.

In poorer parts of Virginia, it will depress job creation especially for young people trying to get on the ladder.

I’d be interested in seeing statistics about people making less than $15 right now in Virginia. Where are those jobs? Who is working them? How will the increase to $15 impact these businesses and creation of jobs? How much cost will be transferred onto the customer? Our pool dues will go up. Not a problem for me, but could potentially hit some families on a tight budget. And unnecessary because our pool already has a surplus of teens wanting to work there for 12.77 an hour.

Fortunately, there are likely very few full time adult workers making less than 15 right now, so probably not much impact compared to 20 or 25.

I also voted for a “moderate” am I am sick of the swinging back and forth between extremes. Youngkin, for his faults, was not extreme and seemed to have an understanding of the value of keeping things on an even keel and listening to voters. He did not try and reinvent the wheel, at least where things were already working pretty well. It is too bad that he wasn’t able to distance himself from Trump just a little more.

It is a mistake for Dems in general to engage in the kind of power grabbing they are attempting with the redistricting. We need to fight against the consolidation of power to one political party.

Dem extremism got us Trump. Trump’s extremism will lead to the pendulum swinging back. The swings are becoming too wide and causing too much instability. Rather than power grabbing and instituting your most extreme policies, why not actually listen to opposing views and work to find solutions that the great majority in the middle can live with?

Youngkin was definitely extreme. Supported The Big Lie and all of the other extreme MAGA policies. The guy would have banned abortion.

Do you not know how governments work? Spanberger isn't the entire VA government. She alone does not control legislation. There is also the GA (and Supreme Court). Just because bills are being introduced doesn't mean they're being passed.

So much RW hysterics over nothing.

So, exactly like the LW hysterics when Youngkin was elected governor? Like that?

Democrats work off of facts and know how the government works. They alap aren’t constantly shoveling out bullcrap hysterics.

Really regretting aligning myself with people like you, who call anyone expressing a different opinion, "trolls" or "AI generated." Grow the hell up.

The PP is clearly a troll because Spanberger has been in office for a short time and hasn’t done much yet. Nothing to regret.

Trolls are full of sht. I guess so are Republicans.
