I just voted in SW Virginia. Rural area, goes usually about 58-42 for the good guys (or at least the less-evil guys). More cars than usual for off year elections but no real wait inside. This was about noon. I'd guess that it was half of 2016 (Trump), and about equal to when Cuccinelli lost a very close race without any establishment help in 2013 to McAuliffe. Although the Dems have an edge in VA now, I still think it is very winnable for Republicans. My hope is that we pull out a win in a close election. For those conservatives sitting out because Gillespie is kind of gutless, I know you won't listen but it still needs to be said. You are not helping.
Geez, I hope not. I've 'heard' that NV and AZ GOP numbers have increased in recent years. I don't live there, and have no idea if it's true.
We got a hell of a lot more Hispanics in Texas and Trump does fine.
Bob Marshall lost as well. 14 incumbent Reps losing at this point in the House of Delegates.
Brit “I gave MeAgin her “start”” Hume just wondered if Trump is at fault for the loss.
Brit Hume trying to blame this on Trump. The elites probably wanted Gillespie to lose.
Karl Tokyo Rove, Neil Cavuto and Britt Hume are absolutely giddy.
Yup. Fairfax hasn’t come in.
Not even close. Wow.
I feel like VA is becoming DC.
Same true for Florida. North Florida and South Florida. Two completely different states.
NC is the next southern state that will turn blue.
I think you’re right about VA and CO, but the other side of the coin is that states like MI, WI, IA, and MN (former DEM strongholds) seem to be trending the other way, if recent elections are any indication. So it’s not all doom and gloom out there...
Wow!
Looks like the occupiers are getting a dozen new seats in House.
Expected five+ but not this.
It’s where the swamp lives...
What an ass!
At George Mason University, a huge percentage of the students there are foreigners now.
Wouldn’t have worked. He’s not for Trump and he won’t defend Trump. Moreover, he won’t fight like Trump. You want to win, fight with Trump, defend Trump vigorously when he’s attacked and fight your opponent hard. That’s how you win, it should be obvious by now.
14 R delegate loss? That is getting close to losing the House. That would be catastrophic.
Why stop there? There's already a West Virginia, might as well spin off the Chesapeake Bay region to get an East Virginia too.
No RINO like Gillespie, in otherwords a democrat-lite, will beat a leftist pro abortion, pro queer “marriage” supporter democrat. Too many Godless baby killer transplants around Washington, DC. Yankees have taken over politics in the former capital of the Confederacy. Since the acquisition of West Virginia was illegal anyway they should break away from the rest of the state controlled by Yankees. If not the GOP has lost Virginia forever.

Some CA repubs have migrated to NV and AZ.
