Fireballer 2,381 Posted February 13, 2020 Unfortunately Va isnt even a purple battleground state anymore. Sucky law, but it has no chance for red any time soon so the law is a formality(at this point). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,631 Posted February 13, 2020 Thanks libtards. Might vote counts now! Maybe I’ll vote twice. Why not? If an illegal can vote once in California , why can’t I vote twice? Or 5 times for that matter? I have all day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my area I'd say white people make up around 15% of the population. In a vast majority of latino households there are at least 10 people. Every house looks like a used car lot.

And while they are packing them in the house they are packing them in the school. So if your school tax is based on your home, the schools get more students but not more money. Win win.

If VA votes for a candidate (regardless of the party), and that candidate loses the popular vote and VA's electoral votes... and because of that, loses the Presidency, how would you feel? The candidate that you voted for would have won the office, but now isn't in office, because your vote didn't count.

Yeah, once it goes against a Democrat, it will be changed... That is what is bad about having a Democrat House, Democrat Senate and a Democrat Governor (who loves to dress in blackface, but that is easily forgotten by many here)...
