because this turns both houses of the Virginia Legislature BLUE!!!
Dems now have all 3 statewide offices, Gov, Lt. Gov, Atty Gen.
Both houses of the legislature,
Both United States Senators,
and 7 of our 11 congressional seats.
Dems will now be drawing the electoral maps with the 2020 census info!
The ERA will now possibly pass.

You'll recall, she was the House candidate who was cheated last time around by a local GOPee judge - who engineered a coin-toss that she (of course) lost.
Simonds was among those elected tonight.
