“2A movement could bring VA home”

My county is pretty Republican, but the commies in Richmond whacked a hornet’s nest with their RADICAL 2A agenda. To whit, most gun owners out here are hunters first, and voters not. Warner conceived a brilliant strategy to mollify the hunters two decades ago, and the current CPUSA drones in Richmond woke them up. When our county had its “2A Sanctuary Status” town hall, I would guess that 2/3 of the households in the county were represented. I’m not saying the 2A voters could stem the tide of unstopped influx of commies from the North, but if it goes that is a big part of the reason why.

The same VA that gaven the Democrats total control of the state AFTER their blackface and rape scandals.

Nope. Northam's scandal broke after the state went to the rats.

No, you’re wrong on this. That scandal broke early last year. The election happened in November 2019.

Make northern Virginia and tidewater report their vote result numbers first. That way they don’t know how much fraud it takes to win. Watch the 2016 election result to see how these areas held back to pull it off for Hillary and Timmy boy.
Hope and pray to overcome the swamp sickness in Virginia.

I am a specialist in Virginia politics and I can tell you in no uncertain terms that your impressions are completely wrong.

Freitas will win handily and Virginia is very much in play for Trump.

We will also take the 2nd district and likely the 10th and the Senate seat also.

The situation for the VA GOP has turned around in a big way over the past year. The loserthink is gone and all over the state GOPers are bearing down and doing the hard work it takes to win the state back.

It won’t all come to fruition this year, but at least some of it will.

I agree with you on everything but am worried about Gade. Have you seen any polling? I live in VA Beach and haven't heard a peep from or about him.

I don't watch much TV but I've seen a ton of Warner ads on YouTube.

Nov 2017 the Dems came 1 seat away from taking over. In 2019 they took over.

Gade did a bunch of radio ads early. Now nothing and Warner is attacking Gade in his ads.

As far as I can tell the city of Richmond is entirely outside the district, though of course it makes sense to put up signs there. The point is that no Richmond residents vote in CD-7, but it’s not remotely the slam-dunk it was back in Tom Bliley’s day (under different boundaries, as well).

The big problem in this district is Henrico County, about 3/4 of which is in the district. Many years ago, from the 1950s through the 1980s, this was a solid rural and then suburban Republican area. Beginning in earnest in the 1990s and continuing unabated since then, the undesirables of Richmond have been invading and the good people have been fleeing.

Some areas of the county are still OK, but Henrico County is bad now and getting worse. Nearly 2/3 of CD-7 lies within Henrico & Chesterfield counties, the rest is predominantly rural, but Chesterfield is dangerously close to tipping the wrong way; it’s just a few years behind Henrico as far as its demographic deterioration.

D'uh. I was thinking about the constitutional offices. You're both right and I was WRONG.

We’re gonna invite you onto our “Trump can win VA” bandwagon. Right now we’re up to about 5 or 6 of us. Any more and we might need to get a minivan!

If Virginia hadn’t gone for George W. Bush in 2000 we would have had President Gore. Then in 2004 they went for Bush again. Red is in their blood.

The fastest way to save VA is to split up fedgov and send the alphabet agencies to the far corners of the empire. They you all can enjoy the bureaucrats and their voting habits and VA can return to deep red.

Gade is probably realizing to late the he should have run towards Trump and not away from Trump like all his NoVa RINO handlers advised him to do.

VA voted for the Republican presidential candidate from 1968 until 2008.

Bob Good in VA-5 is key also.

A little evidence for your claim might be helpful.

In the meantime...

Gade Hauls in More Campaign Contributions Than Mark Warner in Q3

I want the president to win, but if he doesn’t, I still need to win Virginia,” Gade said.
