"Makers" vs "Takers" in the Old Dominion.
Let's see, Northern Virginia, the economic engine which drives the Commonwealth, voted overwhelmingly for Terry McAuliffe; and did so in sufficient numbers to counteract the vote count from staunchly red rural portions of the state.
We see less than 80 cents on every tax dollar returned to us in NOVA, and we voted for McAuliffe. The balance serves to subsidize those same red parts of the state that went for the Cooch.
Surely FoxNoise and the rest of the right-wing echo chamber will erupt in paroxysms of joy regarding this victory for the "Makers"!
