Virginia elections November 2021 update: Thanks to everyone who made it happen
To Virginia voters:

There are signs that the coming Virginia elections will be close.

Typically, our elections for Governor have significantly less turn out than Presidential elections. So getting our Republican / conservative voting numbers up will be key to winning.

Studies have shown the most effective ways to get people to vote employ one-on-one discussions of the candidates.
Talk to your friends, email your friends; let them know how important it is to vote. You can make a difference.

Early in-person voting starts 17 September 2021. Election day is 2 November 2021


State Wide Republican Candidates:

Glenn Youngkin for Governor
https://www.youngkinforgovernor.com/

Winsome Sears for LT Governor
https://winsomesears.com/

Jason Miyares for Attorney General
https://www.jasonmiyares.com/

Be sure everyone knows who the candidates are and why it is important to get Virginia back on track

Vote to create jobs and get small businesses moving again. Stand up for law enforcement and our 1st and 2nd amendment rights. Make election integrity a priority and have “every legitimate vote count”. Vote to protect life.

And vote to maintain high standards for schools all over our state. So that every student can graduate career or college ready.
Time to take a stand.

Vote to unite Virginia and stop the attempts to turn Virginians against one another.

sadly, our local delegate (LaRock) in the state House has gone off the deep end. He's stood on my porch and we've talked about the issues more than once but when he starts posting stuff about re-education of transgenders on social media, you just know the moderate Dem he's running against is going to eat his lunch.

I have spoken to Winsome a number of times via facebook before she decided to run. I could not be happier with her running.

I know little about Younkin, or Jason.

I wish Andrew Knaggs had stayed in the game, but there is always the next elections cycle.

Youngkin was a partner and then CEO at The Carlyle Group. The left will try to crucify him for being a captalist but if using private wealth to invest in the future of America is wrong....well, that just makes it all the more transparent about what the DNC platform is.

I ask simply because I don't know: Where did McAwful's fortunes come from?

The complete and total cluster that is the Biden Presidency has to be hurting Dems chances in upcoming elections. Just look at the support he has from independents in polls and consider that those numbers might be slightly inflated. Eek To think that isn’t spilling over and hurting the party as a whole would be foolish.

The more apolitical family members who are my barometer for things political have become QUITE vocal over Biden’s failures and especially inflation lately. I wouldn’t give up on Virginia just yet.

We've got a real chance to make some changes this election cycle IF we turn out and vote. Don't fall for the MSM predictions that are trying to influence us into not bothering to vote since we have no chance of winning. Show up and vote!!

I just get the feeling Dems are a little concerned about this guvertorial election, they are sensing many people are fed up. Of course I'm going to vote.

I will be there, we won't win the governor, but maybe we can get some delegates, not where I live (very blue), but in the purple areas.

I'd love to be proven wrong, I mean like really, really love it, but very unlikely.

Just an anecdote from when we were in VA last week, at Sandbridge, south of VA Beach:

Not sure if the area is particularly conservative or what but I saw signs for Youngkin the Republican EVERYWHERE. Only saw like one sign for McAuliffe the entire time driving from MD down through RT 13 into VA across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel and down to Sandbridge.

PASig, There is a lot of military in VA Beach. Undoubtedly there is not much love for the democrat party there right now.

Trump won VA Beach in 2016 but Biden won in 2020 even with Trump bringing out more voters than he did in 2016. It’s an area that I would consider to be conservative leaning because of its military presence. Given the cluster in Afghanistan I can see why those on the right side of the political spectrum would be especially vocal right now.

Va Beach is my hometown, both my wife and I grew up there being Navy brats. VERY conservative for sure but most military maintain residency outside the state so that may not equate to voting power of that base. Not sure if the rules changed but I know my parents did Mail-in ballots for NY until my mom started working again locally after we were old enough to be on our own

I'm not sure what to make of this -- good stuff, or scam-in-the-works?

My opinion - vote early in-person at your local registrar's office.

Just make sure the Cemeteries are locked tight.

Many Democrat voters there will want to cast an absentee ballot.
