So, unfortunately, it looks like there will NOT be a nasty, vicious Virginia Republican primary for governor through mid-June, as it appears that Winsome Earle-Sears will be the Republican nominee (given that both former Del. Dave LaRock and former State Senator Amanda Chase both failed to make the ballot). See below for a press release from the VA GOP (just ridiculous drivel if you actually read it – but maybe don’t, because…why even bother?), another from Earle-Sears’ campaign (which, of course, is full of lies, so don’t believe a word of it), and also one from the Democratic Party of Virginia – 100% factual about “Winsome Earle-Sears dismissing attacks on Virginia jobs and her dangerous record opposing reproductive rights.”
So, bottom line: we need to elect Abigail Spanberger this November, preferably by a HUGE margin (10+ points would be great) – to make sure that Democrats sweep all three statewide offices, to maximize the Democratic pickups in the House of Delegates, and to send a clear/resounding message nationwide about our rejection of Trump, Musk, DOGE, the assault on our democracy and civil liberties, etc. Let’s do this!

for Virginia Democrats! Just always keep in mind that you can't assume things will go your way. Work twice as hard for the next 6 months as if Abigail Spanberger was running against Trump himself!
