I highly doubt it. 6 of the 9 Supreme Court justices were appointed by Republicans. Also, it appears like they're signaling that Trump can stay on the ballot.
-
Next week is the Iowa caucus, and thus the start of the 2024 election cycle.
Looks like it's gonna be Trump vs Biden again.

I voted for Washington DC, but I'm also supportive of Cincinnati/Columbus sports teams.
-
What is your primary city/cities that you support in terms of being a fan of their pro sports teams? I feel like Cincinnati and Atlanta are popular for this area.

Wise County BoS just unanimously approved to become a 2nd Amendment Sanctuary. Personally, I disapprove.
-
As of this post, 56/95 counties, 7/38 cities, and 6 towns in Virginia have declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries.

Yep. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Amendment_sanctuary
However, this article from Scientific American shows why more guns doesn't equal less crime.

There's also the Richmond metro area and Hampton Roads

The predicted winners of the major races in the area won. However, the Democrats take control of the State Senate and the House of Delegates, completing a Democrat trifecta. https://www.virginiamercury.com/2019/11/06/virginia-democrats-win-control-of-general-assembly-sealing-trump-era-power-shift/

You mean Kilgore/Elkins? For me, it's the same thing, do they have any policy difference, outside of Kilgore being a Republican and Elkins being a Democrat?

So is there really any policy difference between Chafin and McCall?

Here's a WCYB article on the upcoming election for the 4th House seat between Republican William Wampler III and Democrat Starla Kiser: https://wcyb.com/news/local/candidate-profiles-virginias-4th-house-district

Unfortunately, how can one afford to move out? Also, I'm sure there's a large amount of competition for those well paying positions for the cities from Roanoke to NoVa to Richmond to Hampton Roads.
-
I meant that they were towns/cities of resistance in comparison to towns like Pound, Appalachia, Coeburn, etc. where citizens of those towns typically go to Wise and Norton to do stuff.
-
What do you think are examples of the pockets of resistance? I think it might include Wise and Norton.
-
At least Virginia has Medicaid expansion now, so that at least helps some worse off people...
-
What jobs are there around here that pay well? There's the school systems, hospitals, a couple of tech companies in Lebanon & some tech jobs coming to the Oxbow Center in St. Paul. Outside of that, I can't of many. It's sad.

Here's a great website that talks about politics in Virginia.

A bill that would raise the minimum wage to $10/hr in July and to $15/hr in 2021 is going to get a full vote in the state senate.

Related to Medicaid expansion: A federal judge has struck down the entire ACA
-
It appears that the Medicaid expansion will draw more enrollees than initially projected.
-
Apparently, Virginia has a liquor ratio law for restaurants where they can't have too high of a percentage of their income come from liquor. Lawmakers are apparently working on a bill that would end that law.
-
Kinda related to Virginia politics, but Amazon has decided to split it's 2nd HQ between Northern Va and NYC. Here's what's in Virginia's deal with Amazon.
