I had to change up my campaign strategy.

I was going to move.

And it was all worth it, even though it would make it harder for me as a grassroots candidate to win, because we got to do something in this moment.

It's up to all of us to preserve some semblance of decency, dignity, and democracy in this country.

That was the imperfect response.

I'm just going to push back on these constant questions of Virginia being a hypocrite.

What they did in Texas, they didn't give the people a chance to vote on it.

What they did in Florida, they're not giving people a chance to vote on it.

What they're doing in Louisiana, they definitely didn't give a chance to vote on it.

Virginians chose this.

And yes, the maps are a problem.

And they're always going to be a problem when there's going to be backroom deals making maps that strategically disadvantage one party over the other.

But again, I go back to...

politics is fundamentally flawed and it needs to be, we need to add some remedies to these.

From my experience with everyday people, Republican, Democrat, left, right, everyone between, it's all about affordability and corruption.

Now, talking about Donald Trump's corruption is harder to get through, but when we talk about insider trading by congressional members, people hate that.

There's a difference.

You have to acknowledge where people are at.

Most people are not paying attention to politics.

They're just trying to get by.
