Voting done now it's time to have this thread up and running while I work on some Fall pics. Hurry up and wait time. ****...took over an hour for me. Register line....voting line (hand written multiple choice ballots)….Single machine turn in line.

Now, now, be nice. I had one "friend" on facebook tell me that black people were responsible for most of the crime in America. Even against the facts shown to him he decided it was "fake news".

Way to wait it out though. I was ready to wait that long but was pleasantly surprised with how fast it went. They did a good job in the small town area of getting ready for this.

I voted for one at a low level because he supports marijuana decriminalization, things the environment is worth protecting, and other things I wish more republicans would be ok with. I otherwise voted blue. I couldn’t even get my typical snark in great to justify voting for a libertarian. I had to vote against “I’m as trump as trump gets” Corey Stewart.

No Excuses Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Early IN returns are following the larger national trends. Republican Mike Braun is doing much better in rural areas than the previous R senate candidate in 2012. Democrat Joe Donnelly is winning city suburbs that he previously lost. America is slowly but surely fracturing politically across city/suburban and rural areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Favoring gun control is not the same as favoring policies (always sort of the issue with that polling stuff...) 538 has only 48% of Americans against trumps immigration with like 32% for and the rest in some bull**** “I donno” land I expected more against but maybe it’s because I tuned out a while ago 1 minute ago, Simmsy said: Well look at Virginia, I've slowly watched it go from red, to purple to blue in about 16 years.

If the dems run a slightly older than middle aged white dude in 2020 I could see the state picking trump for reelection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what drove the blue wave in VA last year. It's what Democrats have been campaigning on the past two years and it's what Republicans figured out they needed to be lying their asses off about the past month or two.

I honestly can't predict what will happen, but I think Trump's base is as big as it's going to get for now. Nova is full of people, once you go past Charlottesville/Richmond, you're looking at farmland. They don't have the people to change the state back. 2 minutes ago, stevemcqueen1 said: This is what drove the blue wave in VA last year.

True, but you would think if the GOP knew this, they wouldn't have voted down another healthcare bill right before the midterms that protects pre existing conditions. Do they really think so little of their constituents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
