Republican Party of Virginia announces Stephen Imholt as loser for 9th Senate District seat

There's your headline. This district is safely blue (but still show up to vote, folks).

Probably accurate, but I don’t editorialize titles.

Just posting it here so people know that, despite attempting to put a serious effort into these elections, Republicans haven’t exactly given up on elections in blue districts and they can only win when Democrats get too comfortable and think they don’t need to vote.

Didn't mean to give the impression that it was actual criticism. Just having a laugh at the GOP's expense, because fuck 'em.

And yeah, I think it's important to emphasize that while we can joke about it, if we don't show up to vote, we might not be laughing about it anymore.

while you are right, they can't win this one under any circumstances. Interesting that Imholt decided to do it at last minute
