There have been reports of purging of voter rolls and people discovering they were no longer registered to vote.
Some polling places have been moved. Please take a minute to check that you are registered and know your polling location:

Thank you for giving voters a chance, slim one perhaps, to demand their right to have every vote counted.

(1,634 posts)But Virginias Senate is 21 out of 40 seats held by Republicans.
VA-05 is in a Toss Up. After Denver Riddlemans (R) recent comments, Leslie Cockburn (D) should flip the district blue. Its all about turnout.

THAT's how powerful a weapon today's computer-aided gerrymandering is for repelling the will of the people and protecting the gerrymanderers against even large "waves."
Ralph Northam won easily because statewide races can't be gerrymandered. Which is also why Virginia has two Dem senators. Anything with districts, tho: Nope. Still Repub controlled, thru gerrymandering.
We're up against almost the same sized barrier nationally for the House of Representatives next month. We must and WILL overcome it anyway.
But even while taking back the House, we're going to do so with a lot fewer seats than we would were the elections fair ones going in.

(31,261 posts)In most states, it's an elected office. All the Governor and AG can do is sue. The problem is why democratic voters MUST start marking the ballot top to bottom, deplorables do and often prevail in the races that we ignore, races that gain critical offices.
