Do you have the post-election doldrums? Has the election of an orange fascist clown left you blue? Do you desperately need another hit of that sweet civic juice and just can't wait until 2018? Well, good news, because two states are completely loving stupid and have gubernatorial (and other state-level) elections in 2017! Yes, this is insane and ridiculous and ensures the most drained, unenthusiastic electorate possible, why do you ask? The following states have state-level elections in this terrible year, and as of June we have now entered general election mode, so the thread has been updated to suit! As always, if you have contributions to make, from writeups on candidates to maps to links to issue pages, please feel free! VIRGINIA The Huge Democratic Nutsack Governor: Terry McAuliffe In the Old Dominion, noted car salesman, Clinton bagman, rum aficionado, and surprisingly okay governor Terry McAuliffe has hit his term limit and now it's time to replace him! But wasn't he just elected in 2013, I remember a whole deal with that dickwad Cuccinelli, am I high, you ask? No, friend, you are high, but you're also correct: Virginia limits its governors and other assorted officials to one term, because it is dumb! Now, T-Mac is leaving office fairly popular; despite serious opposition from a sometimes split, sometimes GOP-controlled legislature, he's presided over an expansion of Virginia infrastructure, restoration of felons' voting rights, a booming craft beer industry, and (relatedly) the installation of a Kegerator in the governor's mansion. (Really, read that article, it's hilarious.) However, as of next year, dude's out on his rear end! Obviously, with Donald loving Trump and a Ralph Northam, Lieutenant-Governor of Virginia, the Democratic nominee for Governor, is a quiet, drawling Virginia Democrat in the old mode who nonetheless hews closely to party orthodoxy on most issues. He received the nomination after an out-of-left-field challenge from rival Tom Perriello, a firebrand progressive (though with an equally checkered voting past in some ways) who shook the race up in January. Despite that, Northam's long-standing connections, his support in highly-populated Democratic bases in Richmond and Hampton Roads, and Perriello's inability to turn out infrequent primary voters carried him to victory. An Army veteran, doctor, and resident of the 700-square-mile impending climate disaster zone known as the Eastern Shore, he's well-positioned to strike at the Republican Party-- and its famous, tangerine leader-- on several key issues. Though he's not the most inspiring figure, and he's been the target of attacks from the left thanks to his votes for George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004, he'll have Trump to drive Democratic turnout, and primary turnout presaged a high-turnout general for Democrats. He'll be facing: Ed Gillespie, political strategist and former RNC chair, who has never won an election, but gosh darn it, now It's His Turn! Though he grew up a Democrat, the Southern Strategy happened, and when he heard about Reagan in 1984, he decided his attitude towards government "just made sense to me." You might have seen him on TV in 2000, when he was an advisor to the Bush campaign and a key spokesman during the recount in Florida (he was one of the organizers of the Brooks Brothers Riots). Since then, he served as chair of the GOP until 2004, and then lost a Senatorial race to fill the seat ultimately won by Mark Warner. As you might expect, he's politically very much a mainline Republican; the GOP learned the lesson of 2009, and aside from his ties to neoconservative liches like Karl Rove and his past lobbying for Enron, he's pretty standard. However, the GOP's monkey paw wish for voter engagement continues to entertain, and he faces three challengers, all Tea Party upstarts! Worth noting here is that Gillespie won his primary by less than 5000 votes against rival Corey Stewart, noted white rage elemental, Confederate monument advocate, and worst thing ever imported from Minnesota. While Gillespie has been trying his damnedest to avoid anyone mentioning the word Trump in his vicinity, the Republican Party of today is very much a Trumpian creature, even in famously moderate Virginia, thus the low margin of his victory, and Stewart has been less than gracious in defeat, charging that Gillespie would have to fight to win his voters over. Will he manage to make that diabolic deal? And what will it cost him? At the Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General level, the only noteworthy figure so far is Mark Herring, incumbent Democratic Attorney General, who has been a solid force for progressive change in Virginia, taking part in lawsuits against the Trump administration on issues such as the Muslim ban. As the only one of the three statewide offices permitted to run for re-election, he will have a pretty big leg up on his competition. NEW JERSEY Governor: Chris Christie New Jersey isn't quite as stupid as Virginia and only limits its governors to two terms, but coincidentally, that's how many terms outgoing governor Chris Christie has had! Chris Christie, a Republican famous for sabotaging a bridge to get back at political rivals, fetching McDonalds for Donald Trump, and being very overweight, can no longer be governor! Which is actually probably a relief since there's an ongoing court case about the aforementioned bridge sabotage and Christie is getting a little hot under the collar! New Jersey has a strong tradition of electing sleazy businessmen and bankers as their Democratic governors, and if history is any guide, they're in line to do it again: Phil Murphy, former Ambassador to Germany and former Goldman Sachs executive, is basically like if Mitt Romney was a Democrat, or maybe if Corey Booker was white. Despite the liability of his bank exec past, he is talking a good game on raising the minimum wage, keeping as much of the ACA alive in New Jersey as possible, and defying Donald Trump wherever he can. Though far from a progressive, he's pretty middle of the road as Democrats go, and he's by far the favorite in the race. Kim Guadagno, Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of State of New Jersey, has two jobs, because Chris Christie couldn't find enough people willing to work in his administration. She faces a very steep uphill battle in a state that almost never elects Republicans and got burned very badly the last time they tried it, but she's doing her best by promising big property tax cuts and cutting state support for school funding. Like other Republicans running this year, she's trying her damnedest to avoid anyone mentioning the name Donald Trump anywhere in her vicinity, and in fact is framing some of her policy positions in terms of supporting the middle class against "millionaires in Hoboken and Jersey City." It's a bold move, Cotton, let's see how it works out for her! If you want to talk about matters of state politics relating to the upcoming elections, or the consequences of those elections, or the frustrations of low-level politics as relating to those elections, please do so! These are pretty high-impact elections for a few reasons, thanks to the GOP dominance at the state level, the potential for constitutional fuckery if they gain many more, and the opportunity to use the first major elections since Trump to gauge the blowback against him in the run up to the midterms. We've already had a lot of people commenting about the impact of the local races on them and their participation, and that's a good thing to have outside of high-traffic megathreads like the Trump Thread.

I live in Charlottesville and extremely glad that Perriello is running. When he was my congressman Tom voted for the ACA, despite knowing it would almost certainly end his congressional career. The ACA has problems for sure, but Tom chose to vote for something that would save peoples lives and improve quality of life, despite its assuredly negative consequences to him personally. I believe he considers himself an actual public servant, and makes his choices because he feels compelled to work to improve the state of the world. I really, really hope he can beat out Northam.

Wisniewski is just a generic Democrat who's making a last ditch bid for office, and is rumored to already have a deal with Murphy to serve in his cabinet. It's hilarious how quickly the state party cleared the path for Murphy. 8 years after Jon Corzine lost big. New Jersey Democrats sure as poo poo love their Goldman Sachs cash and less so their principles. There's a lot of talk LG Kim Guadagno will run in the primary, I don't think she'll be a good candidate though. At this point it looks like Tom Kean Jr. won't run. All of the Republicans are terrified to run because they think it'll be a certain loss.

Congress may or may not have to authorize the convention after a request is submitted by 34 states, it hasn't come up yet. * - Congress could hypothetically kick ratification to state conventions rather than state legislatures, which could potentially get extremely weird to the point that I have no idea what would happen. I rather suspect that neither does the GOP Congress, but we are in the Trump Timeline.

The bill has passed both the Senate and HoR for several years running to be vetoed by the governor so it can be expected to clear the house from here. Gov. Sununu ran his campaign featuring a promise to sign the bill so it looks like it is on track to become law.

I wrote some stuff about the VA races as there is now enough info to do more than speculate. 1. Who wins the Dem Primary for Governor? VA is a weird state where the Governor can only serve one consecutive term. So despite Terry McAuliffe being insanely popular (I can't believe I just said that ) he will be stepping down. The race here is has fairly popular Lt. Governor Ralph Northram running against a grass-roots style campaign of former Congressman Tom Perriello . It's another Establishment/Grassroots fight but the Centrist/Leftist flip is different from other similar races as Northram is arguably much more liberal than Perriello. Northram also has a lot of friends in Northern Virginia who he's helped out in the past so he's likely to do well there. I personally still have no idea who to vote for. Should be interesting! Election is June 13th. The most recent primary poll has Perriello at 25% to Northram's 20% with another 51% undecided. Polling indicates that either man has around an 11 point lead over likely GOP challenger and former RNC Chair Ed Gillespie. Polling source: https://poll.qu.edu/virginia/release-detail?ReleaseID=2450 2. Do the Dems take the State Senate? In 2013 after McAuliffe won the State Senate was exactly tied, 20-20. There was then some very shady dealings after 2014 that resulted in one Democratic State Senator retiring with allegations that he was bribed. The GOP won the special election and have held the State Senate by one vote since 2015. The Dems have been itching to take the Senate back since then and in my opinion look extremely likely to do so, with a lot of GOP Senators sitting in districts that Hillary won easily. The only reason these people kept their seats is because VA State-level elections are off-off year so the GOP has benefited from low turnout. I'd say given the current political winds chances are very good the Dems pick up at least 1-2 Senators to retake control. 3. What happens in the VA House of Delegates? Currently the GOP holds the state house with 66 Delegates to the Dem's 34, enough for a super majority. The GOP actually just used this super majority to block the Governor's Medicaid expansion plans. The Dems haven't had a majority since 1998 when they held 50 seats. They are hoping that everything changes this year. There are 17 GOP Delegates in districts that Hillary Clinton won in 2016. Coincidentally, the Dems need a pickup of exactly 17 seats to win back the House of Delegates. The Dems have recruited very aggressively and have challengers in all 17 of these districts plus another 32 districts that could become competitive if there is a wave. Whereas in 2013 the Dems only ran candidates in about half the districts up for election, this time they are running candidates in 83 of the 100 districts and only giving up the districts where Mark Warner got less than a third of the vote in his Senate race in 2014. Ideally you'd want candidates in all these races but they've done a remarkable job recruiting considering how daunting some of these races are. Of course, expectations are still that the GOP will win, but the more the Dems can cut into the margin the better.

The VA Dems had their first Gubernatorial Primary Debate. It was mostly about the issues and saying Trump sucks. I'm still extremely torn on who to vote for, they both seem like excellent candidates, especially with Perriello coming out and saying all campaigns should be publicly financed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/loca...m=.df5d59fba84e Washington Post posted:Northam and Perriello hold their fire in first Democratic gubernatorial debate in Va. A "fun" fact on the GOP side, Corey Stewart has been getting in Twitter fights about Confederate memorials and is being a general piece of poo poo. This probably means he's somehow going to win his primary.

This probably means he's somehow going to win his primary. It's interesting that he's taking this tack; I assume it's because he's polling down against his rivals for the GOP nomination, so he's being outrageous in an attempt to shake things up. His bet seems to be that Trumpism is dominant in Republican politics right now, so he should be as Trumpy as possible (with extra Confederate flags because this is the former Confederacy). But what boggles my mind is that not only did Trump not win Virginia, the only southern state to vote for Hillary, he didn't even win the Republican primary here! State politics are very dominated by urban areas, especially Northern Virginia, which has fewer Republicans than Democrats but still has a hell of a lot of Republicans, and they tend to go for sober, Serious People who will slash taxes and regulations. Even The Cooch only won his race through serious backroom deals that switched the nominating process to use a convention instead of a primary. It's a dumb bet and I can't help but wonder if he's hoping to be snatched up as a candidate for something federal or an executive appointment after this.

GreyjoyBastard posted:Which has to be loving ratified by 75% of State Whatsits. While this is true, it is theoretically possible for a constitutional convention to just straight-up write a new constitution with its own ratification conditions (such as only two thirds of the states or whatever). This is actually how the current Constitution came to be; the Articles called for unanimous approval for amendments, and the constitutional convention kinda fuzzed things because they knew that was insane and the Articles were broken as hell. Now, that worked because the states had some disagreements but generally did want to be part of this nation, and the quibbles about procedure were papered over by the full-court PR campaign by the Federalists. If that were to happen today, it would result in the country dissolving.

I went to a forum tonight for the NJ Governor's primary that all the candidates showed up for other than Kim Guardano. It's unbelievable to me that the party would nominate someone like Murphy who is a true goldman sachs mediocrity after what we went through with Corzine. Murphy is ahead by a mile and he talks the part but he also looks and talks like a used car salesman... I guess we just have to hope that he's our version of Mcauliffe?

All you need to know about the party in this state is that they basically gifted the governorship to an ex Goldman Sachs professional fundraiser for the DNC.

Basically poo poo is all over the place. edit: for what it's worth everyone I know here in NOVA, Bernie and Hillary voters alike are going for Perriello.
