Anyway, people who voted for her, did so by holding their nose. Meaning, they did so just to stop Trump, not that they liked Hillary. This time it was different and people really voted Democratic because they wanted to and they liked the candidate. (Yeh, my sources are friends and relatives in several parts of Virginia but it's what I keep hearing over and over.)
Baby Trump is tweeting that Ed Gillespie didn't win because Gillespie didn't embrace Trump. No Gillespie lost because Virginia and New Jersey reject Trump and Gillespie's racism and overall incompetence.
That sounds like something someone would say on a grade school playground.
Live right across the river from NJ, and it is/was no surprise the GOP candidate seems to be or will lose race for governor.
Chris Christie's approval ratings are in the toilet, and have been so for much of the past few years. Just too many scandals one after another (Bridgegate, closing of beaches on holiday weekend only to have pictures of himself and family enjoying), and so it goes.
Truth to tell NJ is has been leaning democrat for some time; you only have to look at who is in the senate from that state. That Cory Booker won both his election races handily should tell you something.
Nice victory. Congratulations to the winner.
It won't make much difference, of course, since the old guy was a D.
Both houses of the Virginia legislature are controlled by R's. Senate, 21-19; House, 66-34. So it's not like the new Guv will be able to pass just anything he wants - unless he wants something reasonable.
Meanwhile at the federal level, 2 D's have the senate and The House is R, 7 - 4. Tim Kaine is up for reelection in 2018, and is expected cruise in easily. So no big change for America; no big change for Virginia.
All-In-All I wish the R had won, but he didn't. So on we go.
It's a good night for Dems but still doesn't say anything about what will happen next war in states Trump won by sgimifcamr amounts
Trump won by razor thin margins in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and to a lesser extent Florida. Won't happen again and he will be back in NY by 2020 and maybe sooner.
Most people other than his low info base know he is a Disaster.
