The Virginia Gov race

Very surprised at this - not that Younkin is winning but that they didnt pull the same overnight voting shenanigans. Wondering if the more establishment part of the Dem party (who funded and ran the 2020 operation) wanted to send a big rebuke to their own woketista wing and as a wakeup call for 2022 and 2024. Also its not a national race (implications yes but in power and vote at federal level no). Still very surprising.

On the GOP side in the "professional political class", I think you will hear a lot of calls for Trumpism without the extra divisiveness of Trump himself and will use the big win in VA as evidence of Trump principles without Trump personality. Not sure its going to read that way or be acceptable to the Trump base but it will be the sell.
A minute too early. The post above yours talks about their midnight strategy...

Regardless of what happens tonight we have a huge problem in this country. It's clear most of the country wants common sense policies, but the big cities that take up a small area of the country are filled with left wing ideology. The worst crime and education come from these metropolitan areas.
 
Anybody watching NJ Governor? I know it’s only 26% reporting and there are absolutely bags of ballots ready for the midnight drop there I’m sure but it’s a dead heat right now

I think they’ve got their hands in so many things right now (the Dems) that they spread themselves too thin. There’s also a lot of infighting with the progressives saying that many of their own aren’t progressive enough and need to be removed.

Atlanta in Georgia, Chicago in Illinois. Cities that turn these states blue by themselves and then the rest of the state pays the consequences.
 
IF this is the case, expect a complete change in game plan from them. They'll shift away from the extremists...somewhat.
On the contrary, I expect them to go with a full blown scorched earth campaign.
