Polls are open from 6am to 7pm ET today in Virginia, as a very closely watched governors race plays out on election day. The Glenn Youngkin (R) -vs- Terry McAuliffe (D) race is being monitored by party insiders, consultants and media pundits who have all proclaimed the Virginia election as a national referendum.
CTH has been cautioning against reading too much into the Virginia race because historically this is where the DC club insiders like to construct their narratives. Additionally, over the past decade the club operatives have changed election laws and party rules to make top down control much more effective. Voters in the commonwealth face an uphill battle to overcome a multitude of election tricks and techniques intended to tip the voting scales in favor of club control officers.
If you live in Virginia, you can find your polling location at THIS LINK. If you notice any voting irregularities you can call 1-800-552-9745 to report problems, or you can contact the Virginia election command and control officers by email at [ [email protected] ].
If you are a citizen of the commonwealth, we would like to hear your feedback on what is happening in your neighborhood, at your polling location, or in your town. Feel free to use the comment section to share your perspectives and ground reports. It is always interesting to contrast the reality on the ground compared to what the corporate media report in a closely watched election.
Polls are open until 7:00pm ET today. GO VOTE !
Go York County! Strong GOP area.

The commissioner of the Virginia Department of Elections admonished poll workers after receiving reports of voters being turned away for not wearing masks.
“You may not turn voters away because they are not wearing masks,” Chris Piper said in an email to poll workers on Tuesday, adding that it “is not sufficient to offer curbside voting as an alternative.”

Listening to the news coverage of two states voting today, one would think this was a Presidential election. Quite astonishing.
Also astonishing – remember Ed Henry, fired from Fox for bad behavior, formerly with CN&N, and past-president of the White House Corespondents Assn?
Ed Henry is now the regular political correspondent for Real America’s Voice (RAV) and will be anchoring RAV’s post-election coverage at 8 p.m.
Meanwhile, Emerald Robinson of NewsMax is interviewed as a political pundit by John Fredericks of the John Fredericks Radio Network on Fredericks’ RAV TV show.
My head is spinning. Seems a bit incestuous, no? lol
RAV’s on-the-ground reporter said she is astonished at the national media that has set up in a room where Youngkin will speak.
Hmmmm….are they covering this event to the fullest as the Ds sent them to do so knowing the result? Can’t help but be a skeptic, but hope for the best.
Nonsense, Maine Coon. It’s a huge election, they would heavily cover it no matter the outcome.
Then wonder why RAV reporter was so astonished at what she saw in the room….just saying.
“[T]he present American representation is a shadow, and not a substance; and I am certain, that,
unless it is put upon a better footing,
the people themselves will….
readily consent to throw off the useless burden.”

Virginia election commissioner reminds poll workers that they may NOT impose a mask mandate on voting in Virginia
Cont. …
According to exit polling (via cnn)
Voters are more white, older compared to 2021.
More woman than men.

Compared to 2020 not 2021.
Guyski thanks for the post!
Thank you.
Hoping for a good outcome. Scared of a bad outcome due to fraud and/or too many sheeple in America these days. Reluctant to feel too hopeful, but not wanting to put out the vibe that it’s in the bag for the Dems for any reason (fraud, or idiots, or both). Trying to wait and be patient. Hoping is the word that keeps bubbling up, yet now it’s tinged with dread.
Remember, there are a lot of Federal employees here that vote Democratic to maintain their cushy salaries and benefits.
They will cheat plenty in this election; they have the template down pat.
Sad, but true
But some of them are fathers and mothers of girls.
Two words: Willie Horton.
I passed out sample ballots in Fairfax County from 2-4pm on the border of Vienna, Great Falls and Reston. I was joined by a Chinese-American woman with a kid in middle school and another in elementary school who was scheduled by a Chinese-American group, not the GOP. She became a naturalized citizen several years ago and said the Asian community is very motivated to vote for Youngkin because of what is occurring in the schools in the state.
Good to hear.

Hearing there’s at least one precinct that’s already passed 2020 turnout. For a state election cycle that simply does not happen.
The fake election?
Virginia MAGA voters! That’s the difference! They were summoned to appear, and after the 2020 fiasco, there was a little score to settle.
Here’s to hoping Youngkin’s 200K vote lead holds!
There are other big elections going on too. NYC Mayor, NJ Governor. Would love to hear about them as well.
The current & HORRIBLE NYC mayor has filed to run for NY Governor.
So has Leticia James. She’ll bury DeBlasio in the primary. She already took out that disaster Cuomo. DeBlasio shouldn’t even be running for dog catcher. He’s been such a disgrace as mayor of NYC.
Letiticia James would be a disaster of Stalin-esque proportions. She is one of the most divisive anti-conservative, anti-Trump people, racist, left wing marxist, ready to dismantle any pretensions of equal justice.
Yup, can’t even cheer, when one of them goes down (like Cuomo) cause they have the system wired, so the replacement is WORSE, every time?
Will they ever learn???
Good idea. Therefore it won’t happen.
Wow! A strategy! Think this a stretch too far for the GOP of VA.

I get the point (I think) but on first read it looks like your friend polled folks voting multiple times!
Communication is a delicate art at best!
That was my first thought also, but re-read it, and don’t think that’s what was meant. Poor communication for sure.
It was not an easy decision for me a few years(2015) back to move from Virginia.
I saw too many things going wrong with the direction the state was taking.
I was born and raised there. My family roots started in Virginia in 1621
Mine started in 1641, born and raised in Tidewater but live in the great state of Texas now. Hoping for the best tonight. VA deserves better than what they’ve got.
So true. VA is home to SEVEN American presidents, more than any other state. Three of them–Washington, Jefferson, Masdison–were at the heart of founding this nation.
So yeah, VA deserves better than she’s gotten in recent memory. Lead today, Virginians–look at the shoulders you are standing on!
Great shoulders they are. First two governors were Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson. What a legacy.
I’d like to include George Mason who wrote the Virginia Declaration of Rights that was adopted by Virginia Constitutional Convention in June of 1776. Thomas Jefferson drew upon it in penning the Declaration of Independence.
Mason was one of the Old Patriots who attended the Philadelphia Convention in 1787 but refused to sign the proposed new constitution since it didn’t include a Bill of Rights and had too many ways for the national government to become tyrannical.
Hello. my friend.
Hope that you are well.
Wonderful to hear from you JRD! Doing well (for an old guy), LOL. You ok?
Yes. Our home state has changed so much. I pray it can return to traditional values.
My ancestral roots in VA also go that far back. It is sad what has happened to that great state. Fingers crossed tonight for good outcome.
Very red district here. Shortest lines I’ve ever seen at 5:30.
Apparently there’s also a Libertarian running for governor. Didn’t know that until today.
Any sense if people had already started under the new extended voting rules?
Not a Libertarian. A leftish independent. Princess Blanding
Sandy
Aren’t they all?
Just imagine:
Democrats lose and contest the election for fraud.
Kinda funny.
What exact legal arguments will they use?
Counterfeit ballots,? machine algorithms?, fake voter roles?,
Will they demand a forensic audit?
Will they have standing? Lawyers?
Hmmm…
Perhaps they will be able to point to Fox calling it at 7:01 PM for McAuliffe
Brett will wait til 7:10 to call it for McAuliffe, T.
Give him a little credit! /s
Unless the D’s sent a pile of fake ballots to the R’s, as the plan.
Naw…they wouldn’t do that…(s)
I walked into my precinct in the northern suburbs of Allegheny County(Pittsburgh) and saw the paper scanner manned by the same old fellow as in Nov. 2020. He sees what is on every ballot and I am convinced via in the person presentations of Dr. Doug Frank and Seth Keshel that those machines are indeed connected to the internet and were manipulated in 2020.
I angrily, though not loudly, told the precinct that the vote was not a secret ballot and the machines were connected to the internet and walked out.
I will not participate in the lie.
You can get in touch with the Youngkin organization and report it.
I can’t offer a ground report but I have an air report. I have a little bit of interest in watching aircraft now and then using this page:

About a week ago I spotted one of the Raven Aerostar ( https://www.ravenaerostar.com ) surveillance balloons heading out of the Dakotas to the east all the way across southern WV, still heading east. I came back later and it had disappeared. It had either landed, or stopped squawking. No screen shot, sadly. I haven’t spotted it since. No idea if it has anything to do with the upcoming election, but it was unusual to see one that Far East. I’m not really a conspiracy theorist sort – just one of those things that makes me wonder.
Just voted. Republicans got top spot on every ballot. I’m in Loudoun. They clearly marked the candidates parties too.
If you watch nbc news locally you’ll see my best friend slamming the left. He’s got the construction gear on and says VA needs to remain conservative and he hates what liberals have done to this country.
If I knew how to post videos I would.
Oh and I didn’t wear a mask. Me and two others didn’t have masks. Line was slammed at 6pm.
It was filled with liberal scum all wearing masks. Very disheartening. But all my other friends and family said their polls were all massless and everyone was Republican based on sample ballots.
God please stop them from cheating.
Yes, please everyone pray!

In VA Beach, we had a line…reasonablem but a line. In our line was one masked individual. In Birkenstocks. Wonder for whom she was voting.
And how many weeks before we find out the winner?
NJ ACLU seek to extend voting past 8pm due to voting issues. Per #breaking 911 they were successful

And so it begins…
Any recommended coverage this evening for Virginia?
Not Fox.. They have all but called the race for McAwful
Brett Baer’s hosting it so ……YEAH.
MSNBC was seriously better than FNC for the Prez election, Bare.
But there should be some good twit links soon for voting results.
Just stay away fr/ FNC fr/ 7-8PM , cuz they’ve got Brett Baer hosting again in that time slot.
Real America’s Voice…john Fredericks on 6-12 and Steve Bannon will be calling in. Download the app.
You can also use them through a browser (I use Brave).

FOX still praying for a McAuliffe ballot-stuffing miracle. They look increasingly grim.

I’m guessing this means the GOP might have won the Governor seat in NJ too
In reality he probably did, but there’s no way that the Party is going to let Murphy lose that race. Ciattarelli needed a Virginia-style landslide to overcome the “vote count”, and he didn’t get it.
I don’t live in VA, but I DID get out to vote in my local elections today. And I’m HAPPY to say that I was able to take TWO OTHER PEOPLE (BOTH are first time voters) who I managed to Red Pill after a great many discussions over five years.
Fingers are crossed, hoping that OTHERS duplicated my efforts and we can FINALLY wrest this municipality from Dems.
Let’s Go, Brandon!
Well done ?
Has Brett Baer thrown it to the Dem. Candidate yet on FNC?
Polls have been closed for 10 min. and I assume less than 1 % of the vote’s been counted.
So he’s chalking it up as a win for McAuliffe, right?
BREAKING NEWS – Virginia polls CLOSE in nail-biting governor race: Vote between Youngkin and McAuliffe too close to call after Biden said he was convinced of a Democrat win in pivotal election
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10158725/Virginia-polls-CLOSE-nail-biting-race-governor-race.html
…”An early exit poll by NBC showed that 56% of voters disapprove of President Biden, who has campaigned for McAuliffe, and 43% approve. The NBC poll also showed that voters are most concerned with the economy, 33 percent ranking it as their top issue, and education, 24 percent.”
He probably has to turn the patch back into the FBI prop office tomorrow.
They have a costume unit that hands out the confederate flags, tiki torches, RayBans etc
And a pristine WHITE cowboy hat next to a dusty black one? for God’s sake. In NorVA??
Don’t forget the MAGA hats!
Lots of support for team red, however it’s disturbing to see the number of team blue signs in rural areas. We get the sense that conservative enthusiasm is higher but I personally am suspicious of the whole process. We vote and then we pray. Virginia can’t take much more of the liberalism shoved down our throats by the current administration.

I’m in central VA. I filled out my paper ballot and had to scan it into… wait for it… a Dominion Voting machine. I took a picture of it too as I was not happy with that.

. His win tonight is a clear and much needed signal for personal freedom and that parents are the deciders of their children’s education and future.
When Youngkin wins, all of a sudden the Virginia governor vote will go from a national referendum to meaning absolutely nothing. That clanking sound you hear is the narrative changing gears.
We know they will cheat to win. We also know it’s a Democratic Party thing to cheat in elections.
And yet, like BLM and Antifa actions, here we are?
