I understand your frustration, but that is not a wise move. Ed would still be better than the Democrat. At least he may do some good where as the Democrat will do no good. Best to buy time than capitulate totally. In time a better candidate can be put into place to capture Virginia with traditional conservative values. Also, easier to fight him then the Democrat. It’s already a purple state. Don’t need to lose ground to create another solid blue state.
I don’t care anymore. The globalist free traitor GOP doesn’t support our candidates why should I support the Establishment hack candidate.
‘don’t need to lose ground to create another blue state’...I agree; Gillespie may not be our ideal candidate but Virginia will undergo redistricting during the next governor’s term. Both the House of Delegates and the Senate are currently GOP but will be up for grabs if the Democrats have the statehouse and get to reorganize the playing field further in their favor. My wife and I will both be voting for Gillespie largely because of this.
