Repeal the 17th and Virginia would have two republican senators. The Senate is close but I think we will gain next election.

The Republican Party currently holds the majority in the House of Delegates, and exactly 50% of the Senate (with the ability to break tie votes falling to the Republican Lieutenant Governor).

Virginia went for Obama by over 6 points in 2008 and by about 4 points in 2012.
