November Election Results

The Valley and Clarke has become a deeper red and the state a darker blue.

At the state level, the Democrats retained the Senate and have taken the House by a narrow margin. We now move from stalemate to playing obstructionist or quisling with Governor Younkin now the only backstop of progressivism over the next 2 years.

All the BOS and Constitutional Officers were running uncontested and thus reelected. The GOP picked up another office with the election of Travis Sumption as Sheriff.

The big race in our area was the Senate 1st district. Timmy French handily won over Democrat Emily Scott and Write-In Dave LaRock in both the district and Clarke County.

In the House of Delegates (31st), Delores Oates handily won the district and Clarke County over Democrat Steve Foreman and Independent Grace Morrison. Of note, the Berryville precinct did narrowly vote in favor of Steve Foreman by 16 votes.

Also, committee member Randy Buckley won his election for the Board of Soil & Water.
