Voter registration up over 35% in Virginia with VP Harris now leading Democratic ticket
Data obtained by 8News shows that voter registration in Virginia is on the rise after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race for President and Vice President Kamala Harris announced her plans to seek the Democratic nomination for president.
“Particularly Democrats are excited that there is a new face to the party, a new candidate that doesn’t have the age baggage that Joe Biden had,” 8News Political Analyst, Rich Meagher explained.
Data from the Virginia Department of Elections shows that on Monday and Tuesday (7/22 and 7/23), the first two full days of Harris’s campaign, 4,899 Virginians registered to vote, a 38.5% increase over the same time the week before.

If this is true than it's scary to think what the election would have been with Biden on the ticket
I was open about betting against Biden. I figured at least I'd set myself up for a win-win scenario. After all, I would be happy to have lost that bet. Nevertheless I thought we were doomed. While there is much work ahead, at least I and others can actually see a viable path to victory now.
