Is this the appropriate thread for the southern half of the board (read: Virginia, not California) to discuss Delegate and State Senate elections? I’m predicting 53-47 and 21-19 Dems.

gawd, do we now need a "The 2019 Thread" thread?!?

My God, it’s beautiful. And for this one brief moment — Kentucky appears to be too.

wow that was 15 more hours then I thought was possible to talk about the VA gen assembly
but haven't been able to get a good bead on where it is at this hour
I really hope that the blues take the Majority in VA

personally was odd to vote today
8 positions were on the ballot
6 of them only had one person to vote for!?!?!

Both houses solidly blue. Blue Tsunami rolling thru? Left to see. But definitely taking both houses unless every call is incorrect.

Great time to live in VA!

Governor, lieutenant gov, attorney general, both US Senators - dem.

Both state houses - dem.

7 of 11 US House members - dem.

Time to get caught up on things the wild majority of our citizens care about: redraw the maps that has made this take this long, be the 38th state to ratify the ERA, minimum wage increase, recreational weed, LGBTIQ+ rights, Medicaid expansion.

Great, just great.

Hot take:

You all realize that KY and VA Democrats are essentially moderate Republicans, right?

I was tempted to give Az a hard time about that
I'm from VA and about as blue as they come and was insulted (while there is some truth to it)....but alas, there is some amendment that protects that
