And you have to stop blaming elected officials for the decisions of shytty morally reprehensible people.
EOD, I think Republicans won because dems in NoVA focus too much on national politics and being DC adjacent.

Similar issues happen in MD where Hogan easily wins as governor.

Republicans did a better job here and won as a result.

You thunk telling suburban and rural white voters they are "morally reprehensible" is effective?

A certain portion of them are voting republican anyway so it doesn't matter.

A certain portion of them are going to say "well that doesn't apply to me because insert reason here" so it doesn't matter.

"Messaging" is mostly used and referenced wrong in politics.

I think the liberal bubbles some of y'all live in makes you underestimate how dumb and reactionarily right wing much of this republic is, hell at times I say the Dems biggest problem is they don't dumb it down enough for large portions of the American voting base.


@Pressure was right in saying the average voter is @the cac mamba :ld:

We just saw a portion voters in Virginia swing to a Republican that in just last year oted for Biden and before that voted for Dem. Gov. Northram and before that Mcaulliff therefore the portion of voters that always vote Red no matter what gets offset.

Messaging in the way I'm just used it in my post was pretty straight forward so even if it used incorrectly at other times in irrelevant. (Messaging is not used incorrectly in politics" as you say" lol.

WASHINGTON, DC
Serves the Dems right for caping for Hispanics, but actively shytting on their base(us).


Hopefully this is par for the course nationwide, this would make black turnout more crucial if more Latinos vote red.

The vaccines mandates are hurting the dems. What’s was the black vote total?

Washington Post and CNN exit poll had it different
