Democracy in action! Vote Yes literature for Virginia’s referendum to allow new maps of congressional districts to counteract Republican gerrymander efforts in Texas etc. Also a beer and an “I voted sticker”!
VOTE YES TO STOP HIM!
I VOTED! #VoteYESVirginia

I LOVE this! No matter what the result 4/21/26 special election for redistricting referendum, Virginia voters WILL HAVE THE FINAL SAY on 11/3/26. Let’s keep this conversation up!

@repstansbury.bsky.social !
YOUR words inspired me to write this. I’m not bothering to send this to my rep Rob Wittman though. He is hopelessly maga and always disappoints me.
Perhaps #VA01 will #FlipTheFirst in November and I will be represented in Congress by someone as honorable as you.
I really enjoyed the Speed Dating in the 1st CD event! Thanks to Historic Triangle Democrats for hosting it. We have an incredible group of candidates in #VA-01 running to unseat Rob Wittman. We *will* #FliptheFirst!
Plus, @lewislittlepage.bsky.social dropped a John Wick reference. Nice.
We really need to #FlipTheFirst in November!

I am excited to sign all 8 of these candidate petitions. I love having a plethora of great options! #VA01strong
#FlipTheFirst
@heathermassey.com commissioned an awesome video showcasing each of us candidates vying for the ultimate goal: to #flipthefirst
Check it out! It brings Hollywood quality to central Virginia!
We fully anticipated that’s how Wittman would vote.
He’s nothing if not predictable when it comes to voting against the needs of his constituents. We will vote him out in November. #FlipTheFirst #DitchWittman #FlipVA01
Yeah we are seriously pissed off at #RobWittman in #VA01.
Thanks for steeling our resolve to #FlipTheFirst, asshole!
(Also, thanks to brave souls still on TwitterX, there to troll the crap out of Rob in one of the few platforms he’s still accessible on.)
Variation of the Bernie Sanders meme where Senator Sanders, wearing a winter coat in an outdoor setting, looks at the camera. The white text reads, “I am once again asking my fellow voters to attend the events of the 2026 VA-01 Democratic candidates.”
It was the kind of town hall that leaves you feeling energized and fired up to #FliptheFirst!

Flyer for the Neighbors For Change “Ballot Petition Signing Event.” The top half has an image of a person’s hand signing a petition. The rest of the text reads, from top to bottom, “Drop in and sign.

My #VA-01 friends, let’s help democracy make a comeback by signing petitions for the 2026 Democratic primary candidates because they actually care about us - *all* of us.
@neighbors4change.bsky.social is hosting a petition signing on 1/6 from 6-8 at Twin Hickory Library.

We’ll take “toss up” here in #VA01.
I think we are ready to do some more organizing, lots more door knocking, some rallies, some postcards and a whole lot of conversations… we’re ready to roll up our sleeves and #FlipTheFirst in 2026.
I was just imagining what my #VA01 Rep Rob Wittman is saying to this TSA agent.
We here in the Historic Triangle are so ready to #FlipTheFirst in 2026!
Thanks for the shout out!
Chinless, spineless man on left talking to another man right. Woman between, wearing a blue shirt observes.
This is how I imagined the #RobWittman conversation with the TSA agent going. (And I hear it in the South Park Trump voice for some reason)
#VA01 can do so much better than Wittman. #FlipTheFirst #2026midterms
Mock poster of a pretend “Battle of the Bands” involving the 2026 VA-01 Congressional Democratic primary candidates. The poster has a punk style aesthetic and a color scheme of black, pink, and white. The top text reads “The 2026 VA-01 Democratic primary” followed by “Battle of the Bands,” followed by “Democracy rocks!” The lower half of the poster features two rows of the candidates’ campaign photos, outlined in various colors. Top row: Mel Tull, Ericka Kopp, James Shea, Tim Cywinski, and Lisa Vedernikova Khanna. Bottom row: Salaam Bhatti, Shannon Taylor, Jason Knapp, and Andrew Lucchetti. A row of ten pink guitars decorates the bottom edge of the poster.
What if the 2026 #VA-01 Congressional Democratic primary was a BATTLE OF THE BANDS?!!!!!!!
Here’s how I imagine the candidates would rock out to #FlipTheFirst! (thread)
Many voters (including me) feel enthusiastic about the multiple candidates who stepped up to #FlipTheFirst. They brought sorely needed hope to Virginia’s 1st congressional district. Petty, divisive tactics aren’t helpful and frankly, won’t work in this situation.
Image of the giant robot Voltron from the animated series Voltron, Legendary Defender. Voltron is posed dramatically, sword outstretched in space above the Earth, ready for action.
Here’s the plan: the 2026 CD1 Democratic primary candidates form a Voltron to combine all their skills and #FlipTheFirst.
#VA01 Voltron for the win!
A graphic showing the nine Democratic candidates running in the 2026 primary for Virginia’s first Congressional District. The top heading reads, Democratic Primary Candidates For Virginia’s First Congressional District 2026. The main heading reads, Choose Your Champion. The bright colors and decorative elements are inspired by videogame menus where players choose their fighters. Below the second heading are two rows of pictures of each candidate in a square frame. From top left: Andrew Lucchetti, Sean Sublette, Ericka Kopp, James Shea. From bottom left: Tim Cywinski, Lisa Vedernikova Khanna, Salaam Bhatti, Shannon Taylor, Mel Tull.
Fingers crossed that Wittman’s Adoption Information Act never becomes law.
You can act now by learning about the 9 candidates who stepped up to #FlipTheFirst.
Unseating Rob Wittman will help families stay together.
Choose your champion!
Glad you enjoyed it! The more I learn about this awesome team, the more I'm inspired to help #FlipTheFirst any way I can!
I love that so many folks have stepped up to #FliptheFirst! 5/5
@neighbors4change.bsky.social has the 411 on the Democrats running in the 2026 primary to represent Virginia’s 1st congressional district. It’s never too early to get excited about this race! #FliptheFirst 1/x

Cartoon fish in shape of map of Virginia’s 1st Congressional District representing VA01 counties & municipalities: Chesterfield County Essex County Gloucester County Hanover County James City County King & Queen County Lancaster County Mathews County Middlesex County New Kent County Northumberland County Poquoson County Richmond County Westmoreland County York County City of Williamsburg Town of Midlothian
Map outline of Virginia’s 1st Congressional District.
#VA01 #CD1 1st congressional district of Virginia, Rob Wittman’s district, is already pretty fishy! Time to #FlipTheFirst #FlipVA01 and #DitchWittman in 2026.
Fish map of #VA01 district. Rob Wittman’s emailed letter to constituents falsely claiming the BBB doesn’t contain cuts to Medicaid & other programs thousands of his constituents depend on. The CBO reported the bill would leave 11 million people uninsured, and add $ 2.4 trillion to the deficit.
#FlipVA01 #FlipTheFirst in 2026.
Cartoon fish (that is actually a map of Virginia’s 1st Congressional District) in a black & white sketch of a coastal marsh. Caption: the tide will turn.
The tide must turn in #VA01 in 2026.

We are so very ready! #FlipTheFirst #FlipVA01Blue
A bunch of false equivalency bullshit by Rob Wittman (R- #VA01). Wittman claims the reckless actions of the current Republican administration (mass firing federal workers and eliminating entire agencies and defunding grants for research) is the same as “line by line” auditing of federal programs during the Obama administration.
Hey #VA01, #VirginiaFirstDistrict constituents!
Let’s take a thoughtful approach to removing #BullshitmanWittman from office in 2026!
#FlipVA01Blue2026 #FlipTheFirst
SOMEONE HAD BETTER! Personally, I am hoping several someone’s toss their hats in the ring for 2026. I’d love to see a healthy #VA01 Democratic primary with candidate forums at pancake breakfasts and whatnot. We have a real opportunity to #FlipTheFirst in 2026. Wittman is out of touch & full of BS.
