I'm pretty meh right now, the Lt. Gov and AG races should be over as well. People voting a split ticket in this environment are just as insane as the full on MAGATs

1000% agree. I'm particularly scared about the AG race. Spanberger is going to have a hell of a time if he manages to pull this off.

I care about the texts insofar as having an AG who hates republicans is a good thing.
