Why are they claiming Virginia? They've been leaning against all the other Southern bullshit for a while now

If conservative voters were able to comprehend the world without the lens of the stereotypes they learned in high school, they wouldn't be conservatives.

But they sat in class, ignoring the teacher, being bored and disruptive saying constantly "When are we going to use this?!" Everyday motherfucker.

Because they’re stuck thinking 150 years in the past.

Tbh, 1 gets NOVA and the rest of the state may as well be South Carolina.

Grew up in Virginia, from and currently live in South Carolina.

Nova and Hampton roads go to 1. The rest of the state goes to 2, but it is definitely not SC. SC actually has black and Latino populations, and a pretty solid chunk of blue voters. Rural Virginia has neither, and is basically east-east Tennessee.

Yeah, this is way more accurate than what I said. Fair.
