Itโ€™s an overwhelmingly (R) leaning CD.

Still, Democrats should be competing everywhere for every vote, because competing matters. @kenmartin.bsky.social

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders? Dems Just Blew the Question Wide Open. From the boat bombings to deportations to prosecutions, the evidence mounts. And the speaker of the House could get to the bottom of it if he wanted to. Yeah, right.

Is Trump Giving Illegal Orders?

โ€œIs it reasonable to fear that Trump or his top advisers actually are giving illegal orders to people in the military or intelligence services, or is it not reasonable to fear this? The answer is: Yes, of course itโ€™s reasonable.โ€

Nice write-up by @mschmidtrva.bsky.social about the upcoming Virginia Democratic Party activity in Chesterfield County.

In this article, he links to a piece he wrote in May, about a very successful recruitment effort to run Dems in all 49 GOP held HDs.

Additionally, 2 Dems have filed their intent to challenge the inc. (R) senator for SD 12 in 2027; other potential (D) SD 12 candidates may join them. As well, 2 Dems have filed for HD 76 should that (D) incumbent become a senator, & 1 (D) has filed in HD 77 for the same reason.

Va. Dems are sensing opportunity in Chesterfield Co.โ€™s legislative districts, where Spanberger won SDs 12 & 15 by comfortable margins. The (D) senator from SD 15 is now the Lt. Gov.-elect. Her resignation from the senate will trigger a special election between 2 area delegates.

Congress shielded gun companies from lawsuits. Some blue states like Colorado think they've found a loophole. Since 2021, 10 states haveย passed lawsย intended to make it easier to sue gunmakers and sellers

Colorado has made progress on gun laws to keep communities safe. But thereโ€™s still more work to do โ€” including passing an assault weapons ban. When Iโ€™m elected Attorney General, Iโ€™ll work with our legislature to get it done.

The polls said the attorney generalโ€™s race would be close. It wasnโ€™t. Hereโ€™s what happened. Many polls also said the lieutenant governorโ€™s race might be close, too. Only one pollster got the margins of all three races right. Hereโ€™s a look at why the the polls differed from theโ€ฆ

Hi Dwayne, thanks for your inciteful analysis of Va.โ€™s election outcomes. Youโ€™ve previously written about Dem HD candidates competing in all 100 HDs, while GOP HD candidates didnโ€™t appear on ballots in 17/100 HDs. In your opinion, is that important ? @charlesgaba.com

She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.
