Northern VA and Richmond city elected him - not over 90% of the rest of the state. We need to cut off North Virginia just like they did West Virginia.

If there is a North & South Carolina, a North & South Dakota - there needs to be a North Virginia - but leave the rest of the state as just Virginia.

North Virginia is a foreign country to the rest of us........that sucks on the tit of the Federal government.....

That is what I call the Tyranny of Cities. Each County should get 1 electoral vote and each State should get 2, distributed as their Electoral College dictates. No more, no less.

The vast majority of counties in this Nation vote conservative, it is the cities where the residents are either transient in nature (no vested interest in the success of this Country) or isolated from the realities of the Nation that tend to vote Democrat. They are less inclined to be educated on concerns of State and the election process, leading to ignorant masses voting for those who dole out from the Countries largess.
