And yet? My very liberal husband is voting R this time around for school board and some other positions because he's really angry about One Fairfax and the hubris surrounding the policy. He told my son that he should do the same.


You’ve made that DCUM anti-FCPS poster so happy! Your husband should be embarrassed that he fell for the tactics that were used.


There were no 'tactics'. I was at the board meeting and watched them all.

Yup, even my mom, who was a hippie in the 1960s and is a lifelong activist and donor to so many organizations beloved by Democrats, voted Republican for the school board this time.


I don’t give two craps who you voted for school board. Please tell me you voted Dem for your star senator and delegate!


We had just a D on our ballot for senator. I wrote in an R. Delegate also an R. Sorry

From WAVY: New numbers in from the voter registrar in Virginia Beach. As of 5 pm, 96,000 people have voted compared to 63,000 in 2015 when the entire General Assembly was last up for election. That is 32% and climbing.

I'm a Dranesville voter. Almost everyone was clutching a Republican sample ballot and the Dem sample ballot people looked glum. People were saying they were voting R so they didn't lose their property value and felt the school board needed to be reigned in. We'll see.

We got a ton of D door knockers, nothing from the R side.

I'm in PWC and we got stacks of mailers daily. Plus grassroots coming to the door. I am looking forward to the end of ads and paper.
