John, 

It’s official: Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears is the Republican nominee for Governor of Virginia and Abigail’s official opponent in the November 2025 race. 

We’ll explain more below, but first, will you contribute to Abigail’s campaign for Governor right now?

The stakes couldn’t be higher this November. Sears has spent her entire political career pushing extreme right-wing policies and backing Donald Trump at every turn. She’s repeatedly voiced her support for anti-choice measures to restrict women’s reproductive rights — including a near-total abortion ban — and just last week spoke at an anti-abortion rally in Richmond. 

She’s not looking out for the people of Virginia. While Virginia's federal workers are facing instability and chaos from the Trump-Musk administration and DOGE’s cuts, Abigail’s opponent is standing behind Trump 100% and “doesn’t understand why” it’s a big deal that Virginians are being fired from their jobs. She literally told Virginians “don’t fret.”

Sears is just another rubber stamp for the MAGA agenda, and frankly, Virginians deserve better. Abigail will always put the people of Virginia first – she’ll work to lower costs, protect our fundamental rights, stand up for Virginia jobs, strengthen our public schools, and so much more. 

But this race is set to be the most competitive in the country this November — Cook Political Report is calling it a total TOSS UP. Right now, Abigail Spanberger and Winsome Sears are neck and neck — and with Trump’s MAGA machine ready to flood Virginia with dark money, we can’t afford to fall behind.

We need your help. Will you contribute today between Abigail's campaign and Blue Amp Action to help us flip the Governor's office blue and elect Abigail Spanberger?

About Blue Amp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t.

When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families.

Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we.

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do!
