I was just listening to The Weeds on the way home and they were talking about how "even if the governorship wins there's still the likelihood that the legislature will block it"

I fuckin laughed

tbh i was pretty confident in the govship, mcauliffe was surprisingly popular and northam's his lt, but i am outright shocked at how many seats flipped to blue
arcane suncult
legit pleased
arcane suncult
also relieved that the ag is a dem, that was a concern
Inkswitch
AGREED it's just. It's felt like we've been living in this hole for so long and these little rays of light are so, so welcome
Inkswitch
I feel I must reiterate again that I am compromised by whiskey

what I'm getting from this is you and I should share a cute little house in Pungo and work as campaign managers for VA dems

a good dream
Inkswitch

I'm just so excited by all this

They were going to get married.

Apparently Dems control all the legislatures and governorships on the West Coast now
