New polling has Virginia’s AG race in a dead heat. We can win this close race, but we need strong Democrats like you to help. Learn more:
We know we’re sending you this update right before the weekend starts, but it’s urgent, friend. Here’s the latest poll out of Virginia:
NEW POLL:
Democratic AG Mark Herring: 45% Extremist Republican Jason Miyares: 42% Monmouth University, August 31, 2021
We’re just over a week from early voting starting in Virginia and this race is close. We can win this – DAGA helped reelect every incumbent Dem AG in 2020 and AG Herring has won close races before – but we need your help.
Just in case you forgot, friend – the stakes for this race couldn’t be higher. Just look at the difference in the candidates:
Dem AG Mark Herring has been a progressive champion for Virginia (and our country) on issues ranging from reducing gun violence to fighting for marriage equality to protecting the right to a safe and legal abortion. He’s worked tirelessly for a more progressive Virginia and America, but his Republican opponent is threatening to undo years of progress if elected.
AG Herring’s opponent, Jason Miyares, is an NRA-endorsed right-winger whose extremist views are downright disturbing. As a state legislator, Miyares voted against Medicaid expansion, against expanding background checks for gun owners, and against a bill to protect LGBTQIA+ Virginians from discrimination. And what’s more, he’s been supported by the likes of Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.
This poll shows that if we don’t do everything we can to help AG Herring, we could have another extremist pro-Trump GOP AG working to destroy all the progress that Virginia Democrats and the Biden Administration are fighting for.
Let’s win this,
