Virginia’s legislative campaign cycle is coming to a close as a nation closely watches the contest for hints of what may come in the 2024 presidential cycle.
There’s not much time left to get this full leg massager at a discounted priceFILE - Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin addresses the crowd during an early voting rally, Sep. 21, 2023, in Petersburg, Va. Virginia's closely watched legislative campaign cycle closes out Tuesday, Nov. 7, as voters decide whether to empower Republicans with full state government control or let Democrats keep serving as a bulwark against Youngkin's agenda.
Democrats brought in surrogates including Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, gun control activist David Hogg — a Florida high school mass shooting survivor — and former U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who joined Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas for a northern Virginia appearance.Republicans are hoping their candidates benefit from the Democratic president's persistently poor approval ratings, which are lower than Youngkin's.
VanValkenburg’s opponent, Republican Sen. Siobhan Dunnavant, is an OB-GYN who said she supports access to abortion through 15 weeks and afterward only in cases of rape, incest, severe fetal anomalies, and to save the mother’s life. “On the one hand, I support right for life. But on the other hand, there’s times when a young lady maybe did not have a choice," he said.
