Longtime Democratic Party strategist James Carville sharply criticized left-wing members of his party and “wokeness” for significant losses on Tuesday’s Election Day.

Pointing to Republican wins in Virginia, a close gubernatorial race in New Jersey, and significant GOP wins in Long Island, Carville lamented the direction his party has taken over the past several years. Most notably, Republican Glenn Youngkin was able to buoy himself against Democrat Terry McAuliffe to take the governor’s race by capitalizing on parents’ concerns that the quasi-Marxist critical race theory-derived curriculum was being taught in public schools.
