Something is very fishy in VA.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16645124 United States 11/03/2020 09:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | During the W Bush and Obama years, there was a ton of immigration to Northern Virginia of wealthy immigrants who vote Democrat. Some of those NoVa counties are now literally about ~50% immigrant. It was massive and it flipped the state blue. So basically, Trump didn't win big enough in the rest of the state and thos NoVa counties will report last because they do that to be theatrical about it as it will make the win for Biden by a pretty safe margin unless there is a big surprise and lots of them decided to vote Trump for some reason...I wouldn't bet on it. Really, none of those counties should have a Presidential vote. All the capital workers were supposed to be part of Washington D.C. and not have a vote in Presidential and Congressional elections. They are mostly D.C. workers and it should all be part of Washington D.C. |
