Was not expecting Ralph Northam to win by such a large margin. One of his first general election ads was basically “Ed Gillespie says I haven’t attended 90% of meetings… well that’s because I was too busy being AN ARMY DOCTOR, A VMI GRADUATE…!” Just a weirdly defensive non-excuse over an issue nobody really cares about despite having a huge lead, which seemed like a bad omen as the race became about MS-13 and sanctuary cities and his lead shrank.
