It feels like we are experiencing a watershed moment in political engagement and empowerment. I\’m thrilled to see more women, people of color, LGBTQ+, and other underrepresented groups getting involved in politics and taking ownership of their own representation. More like this please.
Not my district, but definitely one of the specific seats I want to see flip in VA tomorrow.
Indeed!
