Friend,
The GOP candidate for Virginia’s governor, Glenn Youngkin, is showing his
true colors. In the past two weeks alone, Youngkin has spoken at an
anti-LGBTQ+ and anti-choice event,^[1] attended a festival aimed at
mobilizing far-right extremists,^[ [link removed] ] and appeared on a radio show with
former Trump aide Sebastian Gorka, who is infamously connected to neo-Nazi
groups.^[ [link removed] ]
The more we learn about him, the clearer it becomes that Virginia’s 2021
election has the potential to be a watershed moment for the extreme Far
Right in our country. That’s why we need people to pitch in nationwide and
help keep Virginia blue.
With voting already underway, we need your help to make sure that every
progressive voter in Virginia casts their vote by November 2!

This year's Virginia election will have major implications for next year’s
national midterms. A bellwether for the national political climate,
Virginia has long been critical in proving the popularity of progressive
policies and the national shift towards a more progressive electorate. We
must keep Virginia blue not only to ensure that our values continue to be
represented nationwide, but also to turn back the extreme far-right tide
of Trumpism that is flooding other state legislatures.
If recent polling is any indication, it’s this kind of voter outreach
that’s going to be CRUCIAL to electing progressive champions all the way
down the ballot in Virginia. Polling continues to be extremely tight, so
please make some time in the next week to volunteer to get out this
critical vote!

2021 election! >>
