Democrats in Virginia on Tuesday night retained their majority in the state Senate — a blow to Republicans who were hoping to achieve total control of the state legislature and boost Gov. Glenn Youngkin in his final two years in office.
The GOP also lost control of Virginia’s House of Delegates, with Democrats set to win at least 51 seats in the 100-member lower chamber.

The democrats put abortion on the ballot, in their ads and rhetoric, and it worked. It scared enough women to vote against their own interests. We need to repeal the 19th.
According to the intellectual Goliaths over at Team DeSantis headquarters, Glenn Youngkin along with Brian Kemp, Kim Reynolds, and Ron DeSantis were supposed to represent the rejection of MAGA and a new bright future for the GOP.
Last night, Youngkin got gutted like a fish.… pic.twitter.com/JS4r6hdWkK— JoMa (@joma_gc) November 8, 2023
....Cameron, a former McConnell aid who had the Republican Senate leader at his wedding in 2020, was described as the octogenarian lawmaker’s “protégé” throughout the race. The senator’s chief of staff even ran Cameron’s campaign. Polling shows McConnell is the least popular politician in America.
Well, out-Twit-Er-ing the RNC/GOPee doesn’t sound too hard, if I can get back into my account.
The polls actually mean nothing in the race against the democrats.
People aren’t even questioning why Biden isn’t campaigning and the RATs only seem interested in what the other side is doing.
The democrats are going to do the same as 2020 and there is nothing that can be done about it because they own the courts and threaten anyone who speaks about the fraud with legal ruination or prison.
Is Youngkin in favor of restricting abortion?
I know you have a personal issue with Trump, but unless you can prove otherwise, I reject your premise.
He would have lost even by more if that Meatball you seem to like endorsed him.
Democrats outspent the GOP, I live in the DC Metro Area and all I saw/heard were ads on TV and even radio that focused on abortion and MAGA extremists. The GOP had no real message in Virginia and National, this is all on the RNC. They are waiting for Trump to drag everyone else across the line in 2024!
Hahah, so the guy tapped to take out Trump loses and Trump is to be blamed? I think the clear takeaway from everything should be this: Pro life v Pro Choice has been decided and thatis not a winning issue for Republicans. If you’re expecting to take a “hard right” position the female voters will come out in droves against you. #2, when MAGA and RINOs agree they will win, when they disagree they will lose. RINOs have to accept that Trump is the leader and MAGA has to find some common ground with RINOs. Trump and RINOS need to agree on a candidate or they will lose. If either one of them get their way the other side will take their ball and go home (it’s mostly true of the RINOs) but I suspect MAGA isn’t coming out for a RINO who is clearly never Trump. The party is useless unless they work together.
We're all trans gender now...
"We The People." No balls, no blue chips... :(
Re: 44 - then what have President Trump and his state surrogates done to reduce fraud?
What SPECIFIC legislation has President Trump and his state teams championed at the STATE level to help reduce fraud?
Being Presidential is more that stomping one’s feet and stating that 2020 was stolen.
I think the 15 week ban on abortion got liberals out to vote. He should have emphasized the economy.
Good grief, the number of whiners and quitters is… something.
This is why Republicans lose. The RINOs dont accept MAGA and MAGA doesnt accept the RINOs so there is only half a party. RINOs have to accept that Trump is the leader od the party and MAGA needs to accept that RINOs needsome say in the candidate. Do this now of next November it will be another RAT sweep nationwide.
See my comment above. This is a perfect example.
Which is it: Trump is the only candidate who can overcome the fraud or Trump and his endorsed candidates keep losing to fraud?
The dim's would just tell them to "Piss off and the, so called, courts would concur..
