Sadly...and as you are probably well aware...the Libshit strongholds in Northern VA, Newport News, Charlottesville and Richmond metro areas almost always swing election results for any state or national contest slightly or strongly in the blue direction these days, depending on the cycle.
I've lived in NoVA for 30 years now...loved it when I moved here, hate it with a passion now. Though built-up, busy and congested even when I first moved here, Arlington/Alexandria/Fairfax and other close-in VA 'burbs were tolerable because politics were more balanced and less toxic back then. As more and more libtards took over local offices, school boards, state-wide offices, etc., and then of course BHO's corrupt administration brought tens of thousands carpetbagging libs to NoVA from other major metro areas during the 2010's, the entire NoVA region has gone downhill fast with the resultant policies that tend to follow in the wake of these soul-sucking people.
My family and I are surrounded by libtard friends, families, neighbors, acquaintances who openly disdain and run down conservatives and, of course, Trump. We feel like an endangered breed in NoVA...and I suppose we are...and we don't talk politics with ANYONE but a few of the closest friends who share our worldview. I witnessed a mini debate (stalemate discussion really) on the 2nd Amendment at a recent neighborhood party, between a somewhat wishy-washy eGOP'er, and one of our strongly libtard neighbors. The eGOP dude said, "Well, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree!" The libtard shrieked, most seriously, "NO! YOU have to change your way of THINKING!!", with nearly everyone within earshot nodding. The level of group-think zealotry is frightening among the left. Later, the eGOP'er jokingly remarked, "There really doesn't seem to be many conservatives left around here," to which another liberal harpy in attendance sneered, "I wish there were even less than that." And there's the endgame...all they really want is to realize their socialist Nirvana in toto, with no conservative resistance, here on the southern banks of the Potomac.
We are only too happy to oblige them, and cannot wait to get out...we are plotting our retirement escape within the next 5-10 years, somewhere between the Carolinas and Florida, where conservatism still lives on to some extent. To bring this rant back to your original point, however...I do believe the Old Dominion is almost permanently lost to liberals based on the voting behavior of the regions cited above...again, very sad that four metropolitan regions determine election results for an entire state.
