For a few minutes, let’s turn our attention to the Nov. 2025 election in Virginia when the state will elect Governor, Lt Governor, and Attorney General.
Virginia was turning blue when, in 2021, we ran a weak, not-too-bright candidate for Governor while the Republicans ran a political novice who raved about “CRT” being taught in schools, kids being told by teachers to change their gender, and other bullshit. It worked so well that a state that had gone strongly for Biden in 2020, elected damn fool incompetents as Gov, LtGov, and AG in 2021.
And now here’s what’s shaping up for 2025 — VA is one of three states that has state elections in off-years, following the Presidential election.
- Very popular Abigal Spanberger, former member of Congress, is the Democratic candidate for Governor. (In VA, governor is limited to one term.)
- Two strong Democrats have announced their interest in the LtGov seat.
- Ditto — two strong Democrats have announced their interest in running for Atty Gen.
- Meanwhile:
- Thank God our Republican governor, Glenn Youngkin, cannot run again. He likely will be given a job in the Trump administration.
- Current LtGov Winsome Sears has announced her run for Governor and it’s looking as though she will be the Republican nominee.
- Current Atty Gen Jason Miyares has announced his run for re-election. He needs to be defeated so he can go back to chasing ambulances.
Meanwhile, here’s LtGov Winsome Sears, soon to be Republican gubernatorial nominee.
