Youngkin V. McAuliffe
McAuliffe turned off the charm last night and turned on the attack. He tried his best to make Youngkin look like a far-right “tin-foil hat” candidate, but it didn’t work. Where McAuliffe was angry and emotional, Youngkin was reasonable and well-prepared.
Out-of-State Money in Virginia’s Election
Democrat Terry McAuliffe has raised 48% of his $15.6 million in total donations from out-of-state contributors, compared to 26% of Glenn Youngkin’s $11.4 million haul.

More “Not CRT” Indoctrination at JMU
Gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe calls the outcry over Critical Race Theory in Virginia public schools as a “right-wing conspiracy.” Governor Ralph Northam terms it “a dog whistle that Republicans are using to frighten people.”
Solar Industry Poll Favors (Surprise) Solar Industry

What to Do with Virginia’s Pile O’ Money

No Surprises in Democratic Primary
McAuliffe, Ayala and Herring: These three Democrats all have on thing in common. They all boldly called on Gov. Ralph Northam to resign in February of 2019, when racist photos on his medical school yearbook pages surfaced.
GOP Is Dead Serious About Retaking Va's Governor’s Mansion
For once, Republicans didn’t nominate the safe guy: Former Speaker of the House Kirk Cox, a smart, seasoned politician and retired government teacher. Or the far-right candidate, State Sen. Amanda Chase. Instead, they went with the outsider with enough money to drown out McAuliffe.
Bloomberg Buying Votes?

Let-Em-Out-Of-Jail Policy Ends In Tragedy
As it turned out, predictions of mass deaths in correctional facilities were wrong.
Virginia's Vengeful Politicians
Virginia is one of two states where the state legislature elects judges. Politics are always part of the process. But scrapping a respected lawyer, whose only problem is that she stood up for the rule of law when a reckless politician ignored it, is spiteful.
Virginia’s Political Amnesia
I sent Northam’s press secretary, Alena Yarmosky, what I thought was a polite email, reminding her that the governor had said he was going to employ a facial recognition expert to exonerate him from the blackface yearbook photo. How’s that going?
Virginia Felons. Voting and Guns.
These newly enfranchised felons are now free to march into court to ask for the restoration of their gun rights.
