Democrat Abigail Spanberger Cruises to Victory in Virginia Governor Race

Originally published at: Democrat Abigail Spanberger Cruises to Victory in Virginia Governor Race - TPM – Talking Points Memo

Democrat Abigail Spanberger is projected to become the next governor of Virginia, securing a resounding win for her party in one of the most closely-watched races of 2025. The win will help Virginia Democrats move ahead with a plan to redraw congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms, an attempt to counter GOP redistricting efforts…

Yay. No sweater vests.

Sweet. Oligarch-captured Zombie Fourth Estate is going to have their work cut out for them tomorrow telling us why this election night has been a huge disaster and created major future problems fore the Dems.

Fuck them all.

Shocking that Winsome Earle-Sears’ strategy of being an incomprehensible, off-putting weirdo and openly loathing her lieutenant governor running mate didn’t work out for her. Maybe Obama will endorse her if she runs again in four years.

I’ll also note that the VA GOP’s entire message was “Trans? tRaNS?!? TRANS!!!”, and it didn’t work. I wonder if we’re reaching the peak of what turbocharged transphobia can do to influence elections. Everything is terrible, and even not particularly political people can see that transgender people are responsible for exactly none of it.

Here in Cincinnati we have incumbent mayor Aftab Pureval, a democrat, versus JD Vance’s ugly step brother Corey Bowman, a repugnant running without eyeliner. AP called the race a few minutes ago – Pureval with 81.7% of the vote to Bowman’s 18.3. Nice margin, eh?

If a Vance relation is running for office they’re guaranteed 14.88% of the vote. It’s written in the Protocols of the Elders of Scumsucking.
