It's Over for Northam: Bannon Backs Gillespie in Virginia Governor Race

Gillespie is in it to win it!

Poor Ralph Northam.

I don't think he realized the trouble he was facing the moment that Gillespie learned from Trump and listened to the concerns of grassroots Virginians. They want safe cities, prosperous communities, and a bright future for their children.

Terry McAuliffe ruined all of this, putting the well-being of the Democratic Party ahead of Virginia residents.

Northam is now desperate to pick up any momentum which he had lost. Gillespie's strong stances on illegal immigration are helping his campaign immensely. How could they not? This issue has been troubling Virginia residents for the past four to eight years. It's the biggest reason why Eric Cantor, then majority leader, got knocked out in the 2014 primary, even though he had outspent his primary opponent David Brat 10-to-1!

And now Steve Bannon has stepped into the fray, and he is supporting Gillespie.

The Northam campaign thinks that they can smear Gillespie and Trump with Bannon to scare voters.

Not going to work, folks!

Check out Northam's latest, desperate eblast:

“If Gillespie … wins, and I do believe that Gillespie’s going to pull this thing out, it will be because of … what he believes in, and the Trump voters in Virginia who are gonna turn out!” —Steve Bannon Steve Bannon deciding to jump in the race is not good, team. It’s because of folks like Bannon that Donald Trump is sitting in the White House, and if he can fire up the Trump base like they did last year, we might be in trouble. Ever since the primary, Gillespie has been moving further and further to the right by utilizing the same divisive rhetoric, dog-whistle tactics, and ultra-conservative agenda that powered the 2016 election and empowered the alt-right. His position on the far-right was solidified by endorsements from Trump, the NRA, the Koch brothers, and now Bannon. Gillespie is not only moving to the right, he is hitting the campaign trail on the right issues. Virginians want safety, security, and their quality of life restored. The MS-13 gangs are ravaging the state! And if Gillespie can count on Trump and Bannon’s far-right base of voters, and make sure they show up to the polls on Tuesday, we have to fight even harder. The same "deplorables" argument has emerged. Northam needs a high turnout, he thinks. The truth is, Virginia voters are probably sickened by his racist ads, which have totally backfired on him. That’s why our GOTV Fund matters so much—our organizers and volunteers are in every corner of the commonwealth right now making sure voters know there’s an election, and that Ralph is the candidate to stand up for Virginia values. Because half the battle of winning an election is making sure voters know when and how to vote, in addition to who to vote for. So we need your help. —Team Northam

Final Reflection Gillespie is in this race to win it. This will turn into another black eye for the DNC, since Virginia is a key swing state, even though Obama won the state twice, and Crooked Hillary won it in 2016. With the reduction of the Deep State, plus the stern enforcement of immigration laws and curbing of government subsidy and largesse, we can expect Virginia to thrive again, grow strong again, and work for the bests interests of all Commonwealth residents.
