According to these election results, all the urban, modern areas of the state, all the major cities, NOVA and Hampton Roads are secure Democratic strongholds and went for McAuliffe. This areas are multiculturally diverse, well educated, centers of employment, with a vast number of Federal employees and military personnel and their families. If anything, these places are typically American, as is America that represents what you and I know as America.
These are the areas that make VA a purple state that elects Democrats, especially with the power of superior demographics.
The more rural part of VA is straight up Talebornagain Dumbfuckistan, and all of it went for Youngkin. Mostly white and as backwards as all get out, triggered by heavy doses of RWNJ propaganda, fear-mongering, white grievance and Trump cultishness. These people do not care that Youngkin is unfit to hold public office. Actually it's a selling point to these people. Especially in some of the economically depressed areas of the Appalachia in the far west , who don't have a favorable opinion of government at all, despite the fact that it's the government that they heavily lean upon for support. Although these areas make up the majority of the state's landmass, Democratic votes could be found there... If they bother to get out the vote and not leave it to the population centers to do all the the heavy lifting. I wondering how much the Dems tried to appeal to these voters. It's cleared that that voters in the mostly white areas been poisoned and radicalized over the last year or so.
But this election should not have been lost.
This is a harbinger of what we're looking at in the upcoming elections. We have to fight back and we need to take that fight straight into the heartland of Central Dumfuckistan. If we can't do this, America is thoroughly hosed.
After living there for 17 years, I had realized that VA is a microcosm of America vs Dumbfuckistan

Maybe we should claim "voter fraud" and that the GOP stole the VA Gov Election
Demand an immediate audit of the results and the other BS that the Trumpsters did.
Skip the lawsuits and stuff that would put any Dem lawyers in legal jeopardy.
Maybe a few protests once Youngkin takes office in Richmond.
It's time to get mad.
This shit with unfit, psycho Trumpers taking office will be the end of us all.
White voters are truly bent.
