If she ever came out in favor of the Right to Freeload, her chances would be nil.

I expect her to come out as pro union. This isn't the Virginia that voted for George W Bush for President TWICE.

Not to mention that voted for the Republican in every presidential election from 1968 to 2004.

Donald Trump will also provide a big boost to the Spanberger campaign as well

I would be interested to see how Trump's executive order requiring federal employees to come back to the office will impact the VA-GOV race. On the one hand, Winsome-Sears may be pro-Right to Work but on the other, she may have to defend her view on remote work and how it impacts families.

I know at least in and around NoVA, there are lots of federal govt. employees. Pentagon is right in Arlington.

Because Democrats control both chambers of the Virginia General Assembly. It was a party line vote.

McAuliffe & Northam were the 2 most recent Democrats as Governor. How did they navigate this; can there be compromise to keep both sides happy and still get her elected? 💙🇺🇲
