Not a wild hypothetical to think Virginia might still be blue if the GOP hadn't used ranked-choice voting to nominate Youngkin.

You do the math on how a Terry McAuliffe vs. Amanda Chase matchup would've gone.

The reaction to ranked choice voting in Alaska was illuminating because the system was being evaluated not on fairness or efficiency but whether or not it produced a Republican victory, the only outcome its right wing critics would see as legitimate http://on.theatln.tc/hCs635q

1. Maybe the fix was built in.

Republican convention-goers are trying it. So are local Democrats in Arlington. And beginning July 1, 2021, Virginia cities and counties can opt-in to ranked-choice voting for local elections -- so long as they foot the bill.

2. I live in Virginia, democratic voters were not excited about Terry mccollough

And frankly the only reason he won the last time is because Bob Mcconnell was on his way to jail.
And Terry mccollough made that huge mistake When he insinuated parents shouldn't have anything to do with their children's public education.

He shot himself in the foot🤷🏾‍♀️
