Well, correct me if I'm wrong since I'm not very well-versed in state politics. Wasn't his voting record pretty disturbing in regards to the environment, abortion and gun control?
Not really (from a Dem perspective). He was anti assault weapon ban and didnt demonize gunowners which apparently means hes mr. NRA even though he's fine with background checks and other restrictions. The abortion thing was basically just him saying that as a Catholic he thought abortion was bad even though he never supported any abortion restriction I am aware of and is fine with Roe. And he voted for cap and trade.
I favor Northam over Periello in this race but in all honesty Northam is much more moderate than Periello and I am amazed at how well Northam is pretending to outflank Periello on the left.
Ah, well, in that case I'm probably still closer to Northam, but I wouldn't mind Periello too. New York Times seems to be supporting Northam- their story really exaggarates Periello's voting record.
