>I like to think that Virginia’s left turn is only temporary, but I tend to be an optimist.<
How many people move to Mass? Virginia has a huge population of recent transplants, and a very, very large number of immigrants. Liberals from New York implemented the policies and elected the politicians that made their states unpleasant, so they move to greener pastures. Unfortunately, they bring their liberal mindsets with them.
“Virginia has a huge population of recent transplants, and a very, very large number of immigrants.”
If the fools leading the GOP were capable of learning they would have learned from what happened to California. Mass immigration pushes politics to the left. The cancer that began in CA is spreading throughout the country, with open border Republicans cheering on the destruction.
I live in the fifth and have voted for Virgil before, but it’s hard to underestimate how poorly his bizarre anti-muslim comments played, even in very rural areas. People here might be conservative, but they’re not dumb, and they’re not racist. Periello will be a breath of fresh air.
