Two years ago, when Bruce Jenner became Caitlyn, someone posted a picture of people in the audience during his award speech, pointing out that no matter how much people say they supported him, the looks of disgust on their faces revealed how they really felt.
Now we have people voting for a tranny, even when nobody is there to see how they individually voted and judge them for it.
I'm surprised that this happened in a place like Virginia, instead of a more traditionally progressive American city like Boston, SF, Boulder, or Madison.
Anyone from the area care to comment? Prince William County is 20 miles from D.C. I wonder if it's all the transplants working in D.C. that are turning the area blue.

Virginia’s most socially conservative state lawmaker was ousted from office Tuesday by Danica Roem, a Democrat who is poised to become the nation’s first openly transgender state lawmaker and who embodies much of what Del. Robert G. Marshall fought against in Richmond.
The race focused on traffic and other local issues in suburban Prince William County but also exposed the nation’s fault lines over gender identity. It pitted a 33-year-old former journalist who began her physical gender transition four years ago against a 13-term incumbent who called himself Virginia’s “chief homophobe” and earlier this year introduced a “bathroom bill” that died in committee.
“Discrimination is a disqualifier,” a jubilant Roem said Tuesday night as her margin of victory became clear. “This is about the people of the 13th District disregarding fear tactics, disregarding phobias . . . where we celebrate you because of who you are, not despite it.”
Marshall, 73, who refused to debate Roem and referred to her throughout the campaign with male pronouns, declined an interview request but posted a concession message on Facebook.
