We got a plan
Apparently Stewart and Kaine had a debate last night
shit, how did we miss that
https://www.facebook.com/NickFreitasVA/
Freitas is at the very least using his FB page to bash Kaine and help Stewart
Good to see him being a good sport
He could really help out in areas like Virginia Beach and around Richmond if he decided to join the campaign
Excellent, I hope he continues to contribute to the party.
I think Stewart ought to focus in particular on Montgomery County, it's a swing district which the dems won in both 2012 and 2014, it's closer to the appalachian part of the state and has a higher population than the counties that surround it, I think that if he campaigns there in particular for maybe a rally a week before the election, that it could work for him, that with flipping Prince William, maybe he can manage it. The main issue is Loudoun county, which is going to be tricky to try and grab with the kind of the campaign he's running.
Loudoun County has lots of minorities I presume?
it's a Karen county
@FLanon @Pielover19 @ThatRightWingFish @R E P T I L E and others
so, what are your overall thoughts on the Stewart vs Kaine debate
Corey Stewart looked like an Alpha Chad
and made Kaine look like a Beta Virgin
^
I mean I can't be objective
what do you think the people in the middle (moderates, independents, 'normies') thought ?
Hm. Stewart definitely came off as strong and aggressive in a positive fashion. The type of temperament which isn't aggressive enough to alienate doves but sufficient to attract hawks.
Freitas is a good guy
Respect
very honorable
He's earned the right to continued support now.
Whenever he runs again
(though not if he isn't the best candidate, of course)
Mark Warner is up for reelection in 2020
and Northam is up for reelection in 2021
@Deleted User Virginia has one-term limits on its Governorship.
So Northam actually isn't.
wow I think I remember reading about that, but I forgot
if Trump manages to win Virginia in 2020, maybe Freitas can ride his coattails
Maybe
Could be hard to swing that state back, but it's possible if Trump can get a lot accomplished
yeah, some states are more elastic than others
for instance, you pretty much can't swing Washington DC because of the inelasticity of black voters
however, the white vote in Iowa is very elastic. That's why Obama in 2012 and Trump in 2016 won it at a decent margin
notably, Florida isn't very elastic. It swung slightly to the left for Obama, just barely enough for him to win
VA's always a close loss for us
