VA went blue
And I cannot live here anymore. Kinda saw this coming and have been planning for it. We’re going to sell the home and move into the motorhome full time. South Dakota will become our legal domicile. VA was already drunk on taxes and enough is enough. Hard to see what’s going on in this country with socialism and anti-constitutionalism.

Good for you! We picked up and left Kalifornia 13 years ago, best decision we ever made.

I have been gone almost 30 years, so VA is well in my rear view mirror.

When you look at voting demographics, almost the whole state is usually red, but Northern Va, and Richmond carry the whole state. I was born in Leesburg, and raised in Pulaski county, and I certainly don't have liberal values. That said, even when I lived there, there were plenty of us that called it the communistwealth.

Same thing at national level, and why we have an electoral college. Were it not for that, we would have preceded Venezuela down the toilet. |

Here are your voting demographics. Family members in Va are pissed, and well, discouraged too. As said, if not for the electoral college system, we would already be part of Kalifornia or NYC.

Welcome to California...
It's that way here too James. The Coastal "Elites" control the rest of the State, which is more or less Red. |

I don't think we are more than an election or so from it being that way in Ga. There are enough libbies in Atlanta, with more arriving daily, that soon, the rest of the state will fall under their rule. Scary man...

You just have to wonder if patriots will rise up, or fade away whimpering in the night. There will be no middle ground.
