I do think Loudoun has the potential to swing back to the GOP but most of Fairfax is headed the way of San Francisco. Every day I wish we still had Sharon Bulova running Fairfax, she was amazing and led the county through some difficult times. Jeff McKay is worthless and that's why his unknown primary opponent received over 40% of the vote.

Why else has Fairfax County lost population in recent years? Get out while you can.

Loudoun is not swinging back to the GOP, thank God.

I mean, we chased the traitor Dave LaRock out to Clarke County, and he lost the Republican nomination yesterday.

Loudoun is proudly blue now.

I hated Dave La Rock. Worthless politician. Why is he a traitor though? Missed that news? Did he show up Jan 6th or something?

I'm not opposed to Democrats, it's just that they have basically purged the moderates out of the party.

Because “moderates” = “magas”

Running these traitors out means a stronger, more united party.

Shows how the far left and far right are both extremist.

There are no non-MAGA Rs these days.

That is true but there are moderate Democrats who aren’t MAGA.

Depends on what you mean by moderate.

No, it doesn’t. Democrats are moderates and Democrats are progressives but they are not MAGA. Are you a teenager?

And republicans are moderates and republicans are conservatives. what’s your point?

DP. At this point, your statement is simply factually incorrect. There are no more Republicans who are moderates; former moderate Republicans are now either independents or Democrats. And the remaining Republicans are not conservative. What are they conserving? Not the environment. Not legal precedent. Not democracy. Not public institutions. What the remaining Republicans are, is radical.

They certainly aren’t democrats, especially given how extreme both parties have become in the last 5 years

Let’s see what “both parties” have done with power lately.

Republicans have stripped women of their reproductive freedom, outlawed healthcare and recognition for trans people, banned books, protected wealthy tax cheats, loosened restrictions on guns, and supported a president who tried to overthrow the government.

Democrats have expanded voting rights, invested in green energy, made school lunch free, enacted paid parental leave, banned employer noncompetes, strengthened background checks for gun sales, and raised the minimum wage.

Only one of those looks extreme to me.

Except for one question: Where are school lunches free? We are in Fairfax Co and that was only true during the height of Covid.

Minnesota just made school lunch free, and Michigan is about to. Virginia expanded free lunch programs under Northam before Youngkin took over. Free school lunch is one of the many popular things that Dems do when they come into power.

What books can't you purchase? Just because people (both Ds and Rs) don't want porn in the kids' sections of public libraries doesn't mean they are banned.

It's not "porn".

So you clearly have no sense of politics.

I live in State Senate district 36 and I am considering casting my vote for the Republican candidate (Julie Perry I think?) this fall. She is a local FCPS teacher and I think the state government would benefit from her perspective.

Pekarsky seems like a nice individual but she has a horrific record and did absolutely nothing on the school board. Don't understand the appeal behind her.

If Perry ends up being some MAGA nutjob I'll just sit this one out.

I really don't think I'm the only one who feels this way and I don't think the local Dem party
