US/POLITICS: Some News from VA and KY

[dewline]

I am reading that there is good news from Virginia and Tennessee - of all places! - tonight! At least of the moment I decided to sign off for the night...and I hope it holds by the morning light!

Ahhhhhh I've been waiting to hear and that's so good

Yes, it is. I wish we had similar news from Mississippi re: the position of governor there but we don't.

Still, it's progress of a good kind. You get closer to not holding a constitutional convention of the kind that would convert the States to a theocracy.

Take your wins where you can.

Russet was following the election results, and we also listened to Maddow's podcast of her broadcast. Very interesting results in VA, providing more evidence that in a fair fight, Republicans have a serious problem winning.
