In 2014, Joe Morrissey, then a 57-year-old Delegate to the Virginia General Assembly, plead guilty to a misdemeanor count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and was sentenced to 12 months in jail (with six months suspended) because of a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old office assistant at his law firm.
On Tuesday, he won his election to Virginia Senate. I'll give you one guess what his political affiliation is.
That's right, he's a Democrat. And he won his election with more than 60 percent of the vote.

Guess the phase ‘Virginia is for Lovers’ is true.
Perfect.
I would guess the voters didn’t know because the press hid it, wouldn’t report it.
No big deal for most politicians.
No rules for felons?
Would it be different if he thereafter married the girl, had two kids, and is still married to her?
I’ve seen reports to that effect. I haven’t bothered to delve into it.
and evidently no restraining order because when he got out, they got married.
Or DemocRATS.
Do voters in VA ever vote for anyone good?
That’s a resume enhancer for a Dem.
Yes, that is what happened, and it must have made all the difference.
You need to look at the facts deeper to understand why this twisted Democrat is successful.
He had a sexual relationship with a young black girl, and office assistant at his law firm who was a minor.
He served 3 months for contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
The Court knew at the time that he was in love with the young lady, who also was pregnant with his child.Thus the light sentence.
He then married his victim providing a happy ending to what was a disgraceful act of perversion by an old man.That is what drives his popularity.
You want to defeat him electorally...get the young wife to divorce him for philandering....otherwise he’s here to stay.

In VA.? Probably first cousins…doesn’t count!
As a felon he couldn't legally vote for himself?
Virginia and Maryland....lots of government workers live there..whadya’ expect? Biting the hand that feeds ya?
“Actor Rob Schneider says that California voters will elect a pile of excrement as long as it has a ‘D’ next to its name. Well, clearly, so will Virginia.”
