LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

If Big Lie persists, democracy dies

Five Republican candidates running for seats in the Virginia House of Delegates attended rallies that promoted former President Donald Trump’s Big Lie, and three of them won.

Democrats, no matter their platform and no matter what laws they enact, cannot overcome the stupidity of voters who elect candidates who believe in the Big Lie that Trump lost the 2020 election due to fraud.

Our democracy can’t survive with a substantial portion of voters believing in the Big Lie.
