#HD71
FIFTH DEMOCRATIC FLIP OF THE NIGHT IN VIRGINIA!

School receptionist/TikToker Jessica Anderson has flipped #HD71 (Harris+5) blue!
November 5, 2025 at 1:45 AM
RESULT: Democrats defend a legislative seat in Oklahoma (HD71) by a massive margin, 85% to 15%.

This was a district that voted for Harris by 19% in November, so this is a huge shift toward Dems of 51 percentage points.

We're on track for an *insane* Dem overperformance in Tulsa. In OK #HD71, Dem Amanda Clinton is leading by more than 70 points. She's on track for a 50-point overperformance.

50% overperformance by Amanda Clinton in OK HD71 Special Election!

In HD71, @jess4va.com (D) outraised her Republican opponent, Del. Amanda Batten, $385k-$138k in July-August, had more cash-on-hand as well ($371k for Anderson vs. $332k for Batten). Go Anderson! bluevirginia.us/2025/09/virg... h/t @vpapupdates

Funny results in the two Oklahoma special legislative elections so far:

#HD71 (Harris+19): D+56
#HD74 (Trump+42): D+5

Only mail-in/early votes so far, so this will get a good amount more Republican, but damn the Tulsa Democrats love to show up in specials lol

HUGE Democratic overperformance in Oklahoma's #HD71 (Harris+19):

Amanda Clinton (D)- 84.7%
Beverly Atteberry (R)- 15.3%

A 50 point overperformance is the biggest overperformance this year from a legislative Democrat (not counting that heavily-Jewish district in Brooklyn)
June 11, 2025 at 12:55 AM
And there it is: a 50-point overperformance for Democrat Amanda Clinton in Oklahoma's #HD71. She wins by a comical 70-point margin in a district that went for Kamala Harris by 20 points. Absolutely wild.

Dems now up to a 17-point overperformance on average this year. Big Board -->

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this woman! @jess4va.com is going to be the next delegate representing VA HD71 in Richmond! Beautiful day in #WilliamsburgVA to stand in solidarity with workers everywhere!

Oklahoma HD71 just had a special election here are the results.

The Virginia Democrats didn't really put that much effort into flipping #HD71 in 2023, but they only lost this Harris+5 district in Williamsburg by two points.

They're not repeating their mistakes this time and have heavily invested into flipping it.

RATING: Lean D (FLIP)

Still waiting for reports (presumably we'll see them early tomorrow morning) from Democrats Lindsey Dougherty in HD75, Leslie Mehta in HD73, Jessica Anderson in HD71, etc. bluevirginia.us/2025/10/virg... h/t @vpapupdates

The Virginia Democrats are targeting a pair of State House districts this year that are going to be heavily reliant on college students turning out and voting Dem.

#HD41 & #HD71 contain major colleges (Virginia Tech and William & Mary) and both are currently held by the GOP.

If you’re in VA’s HD71 (see image), @jessanderson4va.bsky.social is your candidate in November’s elections. Mark your calendars NOW: early voting starts Sept 19, ends Nov 1. And if you/someone you know needs to register, you can do it up to Oct 14.

Make it happen, HD71!

"Jessica Anderson declared victory at approximately 10:00 pm on Election Night...Anderson, who was narrowly defeated in 2023 by just under 700 votes, won by more than 2,400 votes in a race considered one of the most competitive in [Virginia] this year." bluevirginia.us/2025/11/poli...

HD71 Dem nominee Jessica Anderson notes that she raised $68,143 from 6/6 to 6/30, while her GOP opponent, Del. Amanda Batten, raised just "$9,805 for the same reporting period from a total of 17 contributors." Has Batten given up or what? LOL bluevirginia.us/2025/07/1383...

Optimistic for Virginia in 2025 and 2026.

Going to call it a good day in Oklahoma too. Defeating incumbents in Norman (first Black elected) and Yukon for school board; Native winning outright in HD71; taking Bethany council Ward 4, etc etc etc. I know we are deep red but DO NOT count us out! #goodtrouble
Today was a good day for America. Years of gerrymandering in my former home state, Wisconsin—which turned it into an autocracy, not a democracy—will likely end.

On a personal note, I was moved by the vote tonight, as the judge on the right conducted the wedding ceremony for my wife and me in 2014.

@jess4va.com rocked it at tonight’s campaign event in Colonial Williamsburg. Folks from every neighborhood in Williamsburg, fired up and ready to help Jess give us better representation in Richmond! #HD71
