1. after last year

i dont do polls. When they call the race is when I believe it...............even then...........................Russia.

[Not Ruth]

2. If you are a pollster, every race is tightening

Much like weather people and every snowstorm becoming a blizzard

3. Same here

paper ballots in VA?

4. yes, paper ballots in VA. nt

[cilla4progress]

5. Good

[LakeArenal]

6. I often get pushback when I ask what some think is a dumb question....

However...... I can't seem to find why Terry McAuliffe is not running for re-election. Term limits.. or am I so out of the loop?

[PunkinPi]

7. Not a dumb question.

Yes, term limits, but re-eligible after 4 years.

11. Thanks. nt.

10. Term limits

VA governors can serve multiple terms, but not back to back

[LakeArenal]

13. Thanks

8. Donna Brazile's work is done.

9. At least the consequences are done

I don’t have reason to believe they’re intended consequences.

[MrsCoffee]

14. I think they may be intended.

There seems to be a faction of people willing to bash the Democratic Party right now at a time when we would normally be uniting. People with big egos who are easily tempted and manipulated. I'm pretty sure that Putin has sweetened the honey pot for these people. And I don't believe that these people are unaware of it.

12. People still listen to this asshat?

[smirkymonkey]

15. Close enough to Putin the vote.

I'm so sick of this shit.

[mn9driver]

16. At this point, turn out/ voter suppression kick in.

I'm pretty much done hoping for the best.
