Ahead of polls close in Virginia, here’s a full briefing on what to expect in tonight’s redistricting referendum: Virginia is a relatively clean reporting state with a centralized results system, but the order of votes still matters a lot. This is a true three-method state: • Election Day (ED) • Early Voting (EV) • Absentee Mail (AB) In a close race, I expect something around: ED: NO +9 EV: YES +1 AB: YES +40 That means early returns in each county/city can be misleading depending on what drops first. Most jurisdictions report early vote and mail first, which creates an early blue mirage. But some key areas report Election Day first, creating pockets of a red mirage instead. Virginia Beach is the biggest example of a red mirage on a county/city level. Key benchmarks I'll be tracking: • Loudoun County big drop (~93% of vote): YES +14 • Virginia Beach: NO +5 • Chesterfield: NO +4 • Surry: NO +5 Base counties/cities: • Fairfax: YES +33 • Richmond City: YES +62 • Tazewell: NO +75 • Colonial Heights City: NO +43 Turnout dynamics matter a lot in a one-off referendum, so I'll closely be watching rural ED turnout (red areas) and urban Black ED turnout (Dem base). Timing expectations: • First big Loudoun drop: ~7:50 p.m. ET • ~80% reporting by 10:30 p.m. ET • ~98–99% by ~1 a.m. ET VERY IMPORTANT: If the race is close, expect movement towards YES after Election Night: Fewer provisional ballots than usual are expected in Virginia, since they are tied to same-day registration and the state held a high-turnout election six months ago, meaning most voters are already registered. However, post-election votes will still matter and are expected to break heavily toward YES. I estimate: • Provisionals (~18K): YES +37 • Other late votes (~25K): YES +43 • Net effect: +0.5% shift in margin toward YES Avoid overreacting to small NO leads late in the evening. If it is NO+0.3 when we sleep Wednesday morning at 2 a.m. then YES is favored.

Today, I’m proud to be endorsed by former Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall. His support strengthens our grassroots movement and our mission to send a fighter to Congress who will always put people first.

It's so fucking funny that Trump cut his political teeth by accusing Obama of being a muslim socialist who was born in africa, but the second he met and *actual* muslim socialist who was born in africa he fell head over heels in love

Mamdani brought along the fake Daily News front page as a gift for Trump to cajole him into providing funding for a long-stalled plan to build 12,000 apartments on top of Sunnyside Yards, per City Hall & sources. More on Mamdani's latest meet with Trump: politico.com/news/2026/02/2…

A year ago tomorrow, Trump fired me for who I am. After 20+ years in uniform, I was pushed out. I’m running for Congress in Virginia so no American is treated as disposable, and every person can chase their dreams. Join me: TeamBree.com

They shot Renee Good in the face. They kidnapped Liam Ramos. They just executed a man on the street. Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.

It’s honestly inspiring to see Kristi Noem’s DHS speak up for dogs.

Google “Kristi Noem dog” for more on her work in this space.

THEY’RE EVEN GOING AFTER THE DOGS! In Minneapolis, anti-ICE agitators are targeting our @CBP K-9s, including K-9 Dina, pictured here. At the kennel where K-9 Dina was staying, it was discovered that an employee had written "ICE OUT" on her feed chart.
