I do! I want to tell them “Fuck off if you think you’re taking over. Democrats are in power, and they are staying there. It’s what the people want”
There is a special election happening in Virginia right now. Early voting is open right now and maybe 100 people have voted. 100? WTF?!?! What the fucking fuck!
The election is January 11th for the 89th District in Virginia, and this is the Democrats chance to squash the Republicans. Not eek out a win, show overwhelming force.
Missing right now is the endorsement of some of the big Dems in VA. Where is the Governor with his endorsement? Where is the Virginia Democratic House caucus? The VA Dem Senate Caucus? The DLCC? The Lieutenant Governor? The Attorney General?
This isn’t just about this election, it’s about 2022 and 2024. It’s important, vital, crucial, so let’s get these people going!
Ally Delsimer wrote a piece here today about the trouble Glen Youngkin (the newly elected Republican Governor, who takes over in 8 days) is going to cause while in office. I noticed the piece because Meteor Blades recc’d it and when MB rec’s, I read.
What can you do, you may be wondering? You could call some people:
A list of Democratic Senate Members — apps.senate.virginia.gov/…
A list of Democratic House Members — virginiageneralassembly.gov/…
Ask them why they’re not endorsing Jackie Glass for House VA District 89. (You can leave the wtf? part out, but I like to include it.)
You can also donate to Jackie Glass, every dollar helps. There are two days of early voting left and five days till the election. How can it be that everyone in the Virginia Democratic Party hasn’t endorsed her?
Let’s do what Daily Kos does best and give them a nudge.
