Virginia has changed….

Yeah, but its not Connecticut. The side that just lost an election always comes out more motivated to vote in the next one. This happens in California too we just don't talk about it because the Dems only win by 20% statewide instead of 25%. But when it happens in VA, it can flip a race still.

Voted and got my booster shot and it’s not even noon

the thing about the Gov race in VA is the off year election...really depresses turnout
the maga base is super motivated right now and REALLY want a win on this

I hope the last two weeks of 'it's neck and neck' headlines got the dems out

I'm a little nervous
would love a blowout and mandate on Trump tho..

I think LG and AG are safe.

Why do you think people won't just straight party ballot?
can't see voting for Younkin and then picking the dem for LG/AG?

Should have went for the flu shot for the trifecta.

Because the polling numbers are different between the races? Lots of experts are saying Youngkin is the very-slight favorite going into today; none of them have Herring losing.

so what exactly happened in 2009 in VA...was living in SF at the time, so not really paying attention


17+ GOP?!

Kinda thought VA went blue in 2001 and didn't look back
did the dems just decide not to turn out?

They ran a dude from SW VA named Criegh Deeds -- whose son later shot him in the face -- who was so milquetoast he made Frank Turner seem like a cup of espresso. Possibly the worst candidate I've seen the Dems run statewide in VA in my time here.

On November 19, 2013, Deeds was stabbed multiple times by his son

His son later commited suicide.

On an unrelated sidenote, I read that former MLB player and broadcaster Jerry Remy, who died the other day, has a son with a long criminal history who is serving life for killing his girlfriend.

His eyes appear intact but his face does not.

And yes, the son committed suicide and the entire incident happened after he was placed on a psych hold but no beds could be found so they sent him home which led to some changes to VA's mental healthcare laws.

What was turnout there last November?
