CousinsCowgirl84 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I doubt it will take till midnight to declare a winner. A lot of people thought they were voting Younkin but when they got in the booth they decided they didn’t want Trump light again. I know at least one other person who feel like this and I think a many republocrats feel the same… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol this comment is about 10 or 12 years past relevance but ok. The vast majority of whats out there these days are doing good work for good people. Its a complicated industry for the consumer to understand though. I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was from a white, middle aged woman...don't remember which county though. People who go into the booth and don't know who they're voting for just blow my mind, but they are a lot of people like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) Another pet peeve of mine with election phrases: it depends on turnout YOU MEAN THE THING WHERE PEOPLE SHOW UP AND CAST A VOTE, KIND OF DEPENDS ON WHO AND HOW MANY SHOW UP? I don’t know where I’m going to put all this knowledge cnn is dropping on me. Running out of boxes and room over here.

Dems actually passing something would ****ing help too Nah, we're being used as a test ground, by both sides. Also, the Dems were hoping Trump would get involved, which he will down the line. The GOP can't be the party of Trumps and Youngkins, it just doesn't work. I have no doubt the Dems will play the safe route and hope that Trump trips up instead of being proactive.

86 Snyder Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I haven't been paying close attention but is Youngkin really Trump-light? I haven't seen anything too egregious so just curious. Again, I could easily have missed a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hail2skins Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Dave Wasserman should be a good follow on Twitter. He said turnout is strong overall (over 3 million votes anticipated), but especially so in traditionally Republican areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how things have changed compared to 2020 and what % each county is of the state vote. Idk. That looks like good news to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 It is way too early to draw an real conclusions but so far, every county that has been reported on seem to be following the 2020 election pretty closely, with the only surprise (minor?) is that counties where Trump won, the % gap is slightly lower for Youngkin, but like I said it is way too early and those gaps can widen. From the looks of it so far, not many minds were changed either way through the 1st (almost) year of Biden's presidency and this is just going to come down to which base of voters is more motivated to turn out, which again has me predicting Youngkin takes it in the end.

I keep hearing that this year, the early voting had to be reported as soon as the polls closed. Whatever, what I am seeing doesn't make me feel particularly good or bad.

On a more serious note, how is everyone feeling so far? Just hearing Fairfax County won't report the early vote until later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
