Democrats were outraged Republican Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin defeated candidate Terry McAuliffe in Virginia’s gubernatorial election Tuesday.

Scott Nevins tweeted that he thought Virginians “knew better” than to vote for a Republican using a “racist dog whistle” of “Critical Race Theory.”

I really thought that the people of #Virginia knew better than to be bamboozled by the latest Republican racist dog whistle known as “Critical Race Theory”.

MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes blamed the “right wing media” for Democrats’ loss, along with a “unified” Democrat government.

To my mind, it’s a very evenly divided country, with a powerful and relentlessly on-message right wing media, a unified D government at Federal level which makes for a good target of backlash and a Current Situation that feels very uneasy.

BrooklynDad_Defiant! tweeted the establishment media is to blame for pushing Critical Race Theory (CRT) in the state. “I’d like to extend the highest of middle fingers to the media for allowing Glenn Youngkin’s campaign to push the bullshit CRT narrative unchecked by any,” he tweeted.

Y’all are not helpful.

Oliver Willis suggested he is unsure why Youngkin won, considering Republicans are “inspecting children’s genitals supporting an insurrection trying to control women’s bodies trying to cancel mlk.”

republicans are:

inspecting children’s genitals
supporting an insurrection
trying to control women’s bodies
trying to cancel mlk

like… pick one or more and go to town on it

(i dont think it will happen but im stubborn)

Caleb Smith tweeted a video from Vice President Kamala Harris admitting Youngkin’s victory will predict the 2022 midterms and 2024 general election:

MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace blamed CRT for the loss, which she says “isn’t real”:

This is INSANE.

Before all the results were counted, polls indicated Youngkin would barely defeat McAulife. FiveThirtyEight’s polling average on Monday marked Youngkin one point better than McAulife.
