This is (or was) a super Republican district. This is my parents’ congressman. Democrats need to groom & fund a challenger now because he didn’t win by the huge leaps and bounds in November like he had before: www.wric.com/news/politic... - ThreadSky

And the fact Chesterfield is now part of his district isn’t gonna bode well for him because now more city/suburban white folks have been added to his district instead of the rural white folks he’s been used to.

Let me check with my line sister on this one. She works with VA Dems.

I need to check the exact amount he won by but I don’t think it was the blowout numbers like before. Spanberger (or whoever) needs to take advantage of this and check the temperature of the other CDs too.

This is my CD and I'm happy to see this! Thanks.

Channel 6 has a clip of the town hall on their Instagram and people are claiming these are paid actors, the people protesting don’t live in the district etc etc.

Wittman wasn’t even there but continue to make him and his staff feel the heat!!!

Not surprised by their reluctance to believe reality and I'm also not surprised that Wittman was a no-show. Hope he's getting an earful from his staff (probably wishful thinking on my part though). We need to keep the pressure on them and keep it in the media (esp locally).
