John — We've got some revealing insight into the Virginia governor's race.
According to The Hill, top Republicans are privately calling GOP nominee Winsome Earle-Sears' campaign a "disaster." They say she's struggling to raise money, failing to connect with voters, and falling behind in the polls. There's even talk that they regret backing her in the first place.
But let me be crystal clear: This race for governor is nowhere near over. Republicans will rally around their candidate, even after admitting she's completely unfit to lead.
The other side is doing everything they can to keep the governor's seat in Republican control. Let's not give them the chance. Donate now to help Democratic pro-choice women like Abigail Spanberger WIN in November:

Republicans are already working hard behind the scenes to clean up the mess of the Earle-Sears campaign. They've got the money. They've got the infrastructure. And they've got a sitting Republican governor who's popular with the GOP base — and deeply invested in keeping Virginia red.
They're going to spend whatever it takes to pull Earle-Sears across the finish line.
So while they deal with internal chaos, we're staying laser-focused. Because we can't just sit back and wait for our opponent's campaign to fall apart. This is our biggest pickup opportunity in 2025, AND one of the most critical governor's races in the country for reproductive rights — and right now, it's ours to lose.
Abigail Spanberger is exactly the kind of leader Virginians are ready for — a proven public servant, a champion for reproductive freedom, and someone who puts people ahead of politics.
But here's the truth: Virginia is still a battleground, and this race will still be close.
Virginia Republicans are now on defense, which means they'll flood the airwaves with lies. They'll try to rewrite their record. And if we're not ready, they could absolutely flip this narrative and win.
A lot can change in a couple of months, and we need to keep our foot on the gas for the next 92 days to get candidates like Abigail safely across the finish line. Donate today, John:
