But she won there by notably smaller margins than President Biden had in 2020, suggesting a flaw in the assumption that highly educated suburban America would tilt ever more decisively in the party\u2019s favor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Harris supporters in Virginia, as in many places across the country, said they felt grief and some confusion after her defeat. Trump voters expressed a mix of giddiness and grievance. And across party lines, voters wondered whether, in an education-obsessed region, a series of combustible debates over schools had helped diminish Ms. Harris\u2019s vote totals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In Loudoun County, Austin Levine, 54, voted for Mr. Trump. Mr. Levine works in sales and generally leans Republican, he said, though he voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This year, he explained, he felt that the stack of lawsuits against Mr. Trump was \u201cjust ridiculous.\u201d As a Jewish person, he said, he was offended by critics of Mr. Trump who linked him to Nazism. \u201cHe\u2019s not Hitler,\u201d Mr. Levine said. \u201cDon\u2019t preach that he is, and don\u2019t preach the world is ending.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Beyond that, though, Mr. Levine said he remains disappointed by what he sees as a lack of accountability for Democratic-majority institutions, like the school system, that failed his family during the pandemic. He said his two sons learned \u201cnothing\u201d while Loudoun schools were largely shut down for more than a year, and the academic effects were still being felt by his younger child, now a high school junior.<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1336jj\">\n<div class=\"css-121kum4\">\n<div class=\"css-asuuk5\"><noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-7axq9l\" data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"css-1b5b8u1\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M2.5 12a9.5 9.5 0 1 1 19 0 9.5 9.5 0 0 1-19 0Zm8.5 1.75v-7.5h2v7.5h-2Zm0 2v2h2v-2h-2Z\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg><\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript-message\" class=\"css-6yo1no\">\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">We are having trouble retrieving the article content.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1dv1kvn\" id=\"optimistic-truncator-a11y\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<hr\/>\n<p>Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
