First-time candidate Glenn Youngkin wins Virginia GOP gubernatorial nomination
Posted By: Coach, 5/10/2021 11:42:58 PM
Glenn Youngkin will headline 2021’s marquee election contest as the Republican nominee for governor of Virginia. Results from the Virginia Republican Party’s “unassembled” ranked-choice contest cast on Saturday and tabulated Monday put Youngkin at over 50% of allocated delegates in the sixth round of tabulation after 13 hours of counting. Youngkin, 54, is the former co-CEO of the Carlyle Group private equity firm who retired from the firm last summer. A first-time candidate, Youngkin has the ability to self-fund his campaign to a large extent and flaunts his political novice as keeping him free to make decisions without having years of political relationships to maintain.

There can be no denying that the political left are an intolerant and authoritarian bunch. The Democratic party that represents it wants to cancel the rights of anyone who disagrees with them.Showing that fascism is all in the family, Chelsea Clinton has joined the calls for social media censorship.

An army of lawyers — many of the same political operatives who manipulated the November election by contravening existing election laws and flooding battleground states with uncontrolled and unverified mail-in ballots — are begging state and federal courts to stop the audit midcourse and petitioning Arizona's Democrat secretary of state and Merrick Garland's Department of Justice to intervene
