If Trump takes VA>.. he’s going to take a LOT of other states that she has been up by 15 or 20 in polls...
VA is a state that by all reasonable analysis should stay Clinton... the NOVA region is completely dependent on the corrupt system that is in place in DC.. so folks there will vote for their wallet/pocket book and show up to vote Clinton even if they have no innate support or love for her... they will be motivated to show up and vote for her just to protect the suckling off the tit that keeps them fat and happy.
IF, she can’t hold VA, where so much of the population of the state has a direct self interest in her victory, she won’t hold much of anything....
VA Falls, probably isn’t a state on the map that is fundamentally safe for her.
I disagree with those that say that Virginia should be written off and is permanently blue. Yes, Northern Virginia is going to vote their interests and will come out strong for Hillary. The thing is, there are a lot of people in the western, southwestern, and southside part of the state that are going to come out for Trump in much higher numbers than for McCain and Romney.
The other factor to consider is African-American turnout. I lived in the City of Richmond in 2008 and 2012, and the turnout with Obama on the ballot was astronomical. Hillary is not going to get that kind of turnout, nor is she going to get the same percentage of that turnout this time. In addition, millenials are mostly going to stay home.
Virginia is winnable.
