This is interesting from Miyares, he’s highlighting a voter who supported Spanberger, but him down ballot. When I was in Norfolk a few weeks ago, I couldn’t find a single voter like this. It was either Republicans who voted all Republican and Democrats who voted straight Dems

Lt. Gov. Earle-Sears closed out her campaign with a late night rally in Manassas. Much of her focus was on the economy but she also suggested her Democratic opponent Abigail Spanberger was insincere and had the “back bone of pasta.” #VAGOV

President Trump dialed into an election eve tele-rally in support of the Virginia Republican statewide ticket, but notably stopped short of endorsing Republican gubernatorial nominee Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears. He did praise Attorney General Jason Miyares H/t

OBAMA: Hundreds of thousands of federal employees, including a lot of people here in Virginia, have lost their jobs to pay for those billionaire tax cuts. We’re talking about people who have dedicated their lives to public service, who make the country work. Health care premiums

OBAMA: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and DEI for every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire? DEI. (Laughter.) Wife mad at you? AUDIENCE: DEI! OBAMA: What they have not devoted energy to is helping you. They have not put forward serious proposals to

Obama speaks to Virginians who have lost their jobs this year at hands of federal gov’t. Slams Republicans for blaming everything on diversity “You got a flat tire? DEI. Wife mad at you? DEI.” Crowd laughs. He concludes it’s all a distraction from not doing anything to

Soon after taking stage Obama criticizes White House, “lawlessness, recklessness, mean spiritedness, just plain craziness.” Loud boos when Obama talks about ICE agents snatching people off street “It’s like everyday is Halloween, except it’s no tricks and no treats.” #VAGOV

Spanberger now speaks specifically to the DOGE cuts and the government shutdown, calling the Trump administration reckless and damaging to the state’s economy. “I will always put Virginia, not a president, not a party, first,” she says. #VAGOV

Spanberger takes stage ahead of Obama with a speech emphasizing her love for Virginia, commitment to service and focus on affordability. She tells the crowd this election will give voters the opportunity for the state to set an example for the nation. #VAGOV

Yolanda Stoner is a good illustration of why the Spanberger campaign has called Pres. Obama to join the trail in the final days of the race. Stoner has already voted but this rally serves as a base motivator especially in places like Norfolk where Black turn out is key. #VAGOV

Sen. Kaine on stage now, reiterates support for Jay Jones. He tells crowd he’s known him for 25 years. “Jay will be a great Attorney General,” says Kaine. Some state Democrats believe if Spanberger beats Earle-Sears by more than 10 points, she will drag Jones across the finish

Jay Jones, Virginia’s embattled Democratic candidate for Attorney General, has taken the stage at the Spanberger/Obama rally. It was not clear if he was going to be here. He is from Norfolk and tells the crowd, it feels good to be home. #VAGOV

We are at a rally for Lt. Gov. Winsome-Earle Sears and the Republican ticket in Harrisonburg. I spoke to Cathy Teter, the owner of a cattle trailer dealership. She tells me her most urgent concern is the economy and support for small businesses. #VAGOV Earle-Sears had to miss

Abigail Spanberger speaking at length in fluent Spanish at a Latinos campaign event in Alexandria, VA:

This. The substance of what he’s selling if you actually listen to him on the campaign trail is every progressive demand.
