Stafford led a Blue wave Tuesday. Strong messaging, old-fashioned door-knocking, and the long coattails of Abigail Spanberger were the difference. Now, Dems must prove they can deliver.
How can you say “…a commitment to righting the ship promises to make the year ahead an interesting one in Fredericksburg.” with straight face? All of the candidates who won are committed to the status quo and were hand picked by Fredericksburg’s version of Tammany Hall. The new city council will be committed to back room deals in closed session with the developer’s lawyer. The school board will also be committed to saving the status quo with no change. It will be at least another 2 years of 7-0 group think.
Since 'FXBG Advance' published it, Objection is raised on Day 1 post Election re: Ward 3 School Bd Annie Langdon's quote: “I’m happy to see that the voters of Ward 3 didn’t fall for any of the nasty tactics that were on display for the duration of this campaign,” she told the Advance. “When it really counted, honesty, authenticity, and integrity prevailed and it was a great day not only for myself, but my friends Joy and Susanna as well. Kindness always wins, and now it’s time to get to work.”
Ms. Langdon participated in toxicity on her Facebook page to attack her highly-qualified opponent.
Ms. Langdon is under investigation by a number of entities for federal violation of FERPA Family Educational Rights Privacy Act.
She cruelly posted a FB post with background music audibly playing Chinchilla 'Little Girl Lost' to taunt, bully, and threaten her opponent. The lyrics are appalling.
In no world is this behavior acceptable by a person, especially a school employee and now school board representative, for the time being.
What the question should be for some of the residents of Fredericksburg who participated in the bullying, by liking her post and making comments, including FCPS staff and PTO/PTA volunteers in the school buildings is "how do you think it is appropriate for you to engage in this bullying behavior? Would this be tolerated by Fairfax Co PS, Spotsylvania Co PS?'
Answer: Absolutely not.
It is a loss to the Fredericksburg City Public Schools and the school board that her opponent is not in the position.
Point missed by 'FXBG Advance' is the research that the 'undercount' vote was not considered. It is a significant number. Hundreds of residents skipped voting for names in the LOCAL election.
If they made it past the FDC gauntlet line shoving the blue paper into hands, (Photo/video of Councilor Jannan Holmes touching the voter's stack of campaign lit that was being collected by the voter, including the GOP ballot and removing it from the voter's hand to replace it with the FDC endorsed ballot), and they did NOT walk in with that paper, the chance that they would vote for LOCAL decreases.
Hence, the significant undercount on the LOCAL races.
It was concerning to be in the room and hear the numbers for the undercount.
22401 no longer has its May election to focus on the LOCAL election and this 11-4-2025 election period demonstrated that we have now buried the LOCAL kitchen table issues within the national and state focus of partisan politics.
There is no mandate for Ms. Langdon to serve FCPS, her former employer, as the Ward 3 school board representative.
The Fredericksburg Democratic Committee's divisive LOCAL ballot, that blue piece of paper, rather than the sweat and footsteps of the candidate and volunteers to the 22401 doors is what got Ms. Langdon into the position.
Ms. Langdon was not properly vetted to be a candidate.
All parties to the repeated violations and the violent threats by Ms. Langdon will be held accountable.
Facebook videos and posts have been sent to authorities by a number of residents who are concerned with how Ms. Langdon conducted a smear and attack campaign.
These persistent, unrelenting attacks by Ms. Langdon since the contentious 7-9-2025 Fredericksburg Democratic Committee's endorsement meeting, can NOT in any way be excused.
Those who recognize what was/is happening in this creepy campaign by Ms. Langdon will ensure that Fredericksburg authorities, as well as state and federal authorities will respond with the code to ensure the victim(s) are treated with dignity and provided with support by the justice agencies, including disability rights advocacy groups.
Lyrics to Chinchilla 'Little Girl Lost' (2024):
Lyrics
So I heard you're back in town
And haven't changed a bit, man
You get off talking down to the little man
Time you get what you deserve
Wow (wow)
You're so fucking stupid
Been a while since my head was this polluted
Lucky I know my own worth
So you, so you wanna fight me, are you big enough?
Kick the back of my knee, are you serious?
(Are you serious?)
You keep on trying but
I like your blood on my teeth just a little too much
so bite me, slap me round the face
Now I'm twisting your arm 'til I hear it break
I get stronger everyday
Yeah, little girl gone, got a gun from a gangster
Run little girl, run little girl, bang, ha
Say that again, I didn't quite hear you
Messed with the wrong bitch in the wrong era
I been at work and I got my badge of honor
Honey, I've changed so much since I last saw you
Hands off my hair, how very dare you
Ding ding, hold my earrings for my debut
'Cause I pack a punch backed into a corner
Come at me, don't tell me I didn't warn ya
Did you think I'd be easy
Snap me like bamboo?
Mold me into the soul of your jackboot?
Wish I could bottle the taste
'Cause I'd drink up the look on your face
So you, so you wanna fight me, are you big enough?
Kick the back of my knee, are you serious?
(Are you serious?)
You keep on trying but
I like your blood on my teeth just a little too much
so bite me, slap me round the face
Now I'm twisting your arm 'til I hear it break
I get stronger everyday, yeah
Little girl gone, got a gun from a gangster
Run little girl, run little girl, bang, ha
Say that again, I didn't quite hear you
Messed with the wrong bitch in the wrong era
I been at work and I got my badge of honor
Honey, I've changed so much since I last saw you
Hands off my hair, how very dare you
Ding ding, hold my earrings for my debut
'Cause I pack a punch backed into a corner
Come at me, don't tell me I didn't warn ya
Little girl gone, got a gun from a gangster
Run little girl, run little girl, faster
Little girl gone, got a gun from a gangster
Honey I changed so much since I last saw you
Hands off my hair, how very dare you
Ding ding, hold my earrings for my debut
'Cause I pack a punch backed into a corner
Come at me, don't tell me I didn't warn ya
