It's because we didn't nominate candidates conservative enough!

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Dominating.

[Gass3268]

Yep, the Republican party is about as popular as herpes.

Thanks Ted!

Thanks Ted!

And also thanks Rand for plagiarizing from Wikipedia while endorsing Cuccinelli and attacking pro-choicers!

Also, nobody mentioned this yet, but since the Virginia Senate isn't up for any elections this year (only the VA House of Delegates), Democrats will take control of the VA Senate because of it being 20-20 assuming Northam wins and puts the Democratic Party in control. Plus although they probably won't be able to flip control of the House of Delegates, the Democrats will certainly pick up some seats which means Republicans will basically be powerless from hereon in.

They still would have to hold Northam's seat in a special election...and if Herring wins his race Democrats will have difficulty holding his seat due to a virtually non-existent Democratic elected base and top class GOP candidates within his district.

Wow, Republicans are even blowing the ATTORNEY GENERALS RACE. ing embarrassing.

McDonnell only won his district 54.72% in an awful year for Democrats. This will be an easy hold for the Dems.

[windjammer]

Well, for the house, your prediction?

Me: 55R-45D

[Gass3268]

Dems filp 10 seats so 56-42. Probably a bit optomistic, but who knows if those party approvals. The seats in Virginia Beach will be a key as to just how many seats the Dems will get.

[Hifly]

I'm gonna take a wild stab and say Dems won't gain more than 5 seats. You can make fun of me afterwards if I'm wrong.

This article is interesting! Obama carried many R districts in 2012. So I guess if Mcauliffe wins with a good margin, it's possible to gain 10-15 seats!

Obama won 45-50 districts in the VA house of representatives!

[Hifly]

Windjammer: I think all House districts (except for HD-100) that were won by Obama with up to c.58% of the vote are held by Republicans. It's pretty amazing!

PVI for state house, based only on 2012 (and not 2008 because I haven't found the results).

[IceSpear]

It's because we didn't nominate candidates conservative enough!

If only Cooch tried to ban all sex instead of just oral, who knows where we'd be at this point?

And not taking a picture with Cruz probably cost him at least 20 points. Damn RINOs.
