Majority of Virginians View NRA Favorably Except in Northern Virginia

This explains why the gun ban lobby have limited their big spending to the Northern Virginia Area.  Politico reports that while a majority of Virginians view the NRA favorably,  the numbers are slightly different in the Northern Virginia area:
There is a significant regional divide in opinion. In Northern Virginia, the NRA survey found that critics of the group outnumber the sympathizers, 46 percent to 43 percent.  Outside of the D.C. media market, the NRA has a 19-point advantage in favorability.


The question is, have the gun ban lobby and anti-gun candidates like Terry McAuliffe determined that Northern Virginia has finally reached a tipping point in statewide elections where it not only votes anti-gun and Democratic, but brings enough of those votes to the polls to make the rest of Virginia’s vote irrelevant?
