What Went Down During The 2021 Elections

Republicans have taken the lead in a 52nd seat in the Virginia House of Delegates, although it seems like this one won’t be called for a while.

We have corrected our results in HD85. Instead of a Democratic hold, Republican Karen Greenhalgh has a 202-vote lead over first-term Democrat Alex Askew. This is in recount territory, a margin of 7/10ths of 1% of votes cast. –> MORE pic.twitter.com/NxQ4RVQnc6

So now that McAuliffe has officially conceded, I guess we can say for sure that Taylor Swift fans (“Swifties”) were not able to save the former Virginia governor. There was so much “the NASCAR dads of 2021” potential, too! 😞

Our own Geoffrey Skelley discussed this not-so-pivotal voting bloc on The Daily Show last night!
