The billionaire class were too greedy in their play. They thought they can rule without any pushback from the public. The American people are incredibly angry and tonight demonstrates a real weakness of the Republican party and Trump. It appears a clean sweep for the Democrats.
I mean this is so far pretty close to a 10 out of 10 night for Democrats. Winning everywhere! Statewide in PA and GA, huge margin in VA gov race. Sherrill tracking double digits as well! Mamdani above 50% in a the highest turnout in NYC since 1969. Big pick ups in VA House of Delegates.

This is just wild. The next four years, the Republicans in VA are shut out of state politics. If this is a preview for the midterms in 2026, expect a real panic from the Republicans. There is no amount of nonsense that Trump can do to avoid the mounting of a landslide.
Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Jamelle Bouie and me are thinking the same.
Our time is now. If I can do it again, I'd would wake up earlier and fight these empire bastards.
