Virginia · Self-Determination
Asked plainly, nearly half of Virginia votes to leave the union.
There is no organized movement for it in the Commonwealth yet. That is exactly what we are here to change.
Virginiaadults in Virginia would back independence when the question is asked the way a ballot asks it: calm, binary, and peaceful. That's about 49% of the state.
Even the understated abstract poll counts 1.3 million (19%). How we get this number →

people
More than the whole of Denmark. A nation-sized population, governed from elsewhere.
seats in Congress
The other 522 are chosen by people who don't live here.
The only question that matters
Virginia is already a nation in all but name.
If Virginia were already a self-governing nation, with its own border, its own money, its own defense, everything two hundred other nations control, and the vote in front of you was not whether to leave, but whether to join the United States on the terms it offers today, would you vote yes?
Cast your vote
Virginia calls itself the Commonwealth. That word is older than the union, and it means a people who agree to govern themselves for the common good. Ask Virginians the plain question, worded the way a real vote would be worded, and about 49% say they would leave the union. That is close to half. That is roughly 3.3 million adults.
A ballot is not a mood. It is a yes or a no, put calmly, decided in peace. When you ask it that way, support runs about 30 points above the abstract poll, and that shift lands Virginia at or near a majority. Even the understated floor, the YouGov question, already puts it at 19%. The real number is the one you get when the choice is on a ballot, and that number is 49%. Virginia leaned Democratic in 2020, and it still sits within reach of a majority on this, which tells you self-determination is not a red thing or a blue thing.
What is missing here is not the votes. What is missing is each other. We bring the playbook and the connections built by the largest independence movement in the country. We do not run your group. We do not take your money. You build what Virginia's movement looks like, and we help you find the people already standing next to you.
