Democrats broaden targets in Virginia as matchup for governor is set

Republicans are hoping to hold all three statewide offices and flip the state House, while Democrats are eyeing full control of Richmond. On Monday, the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee issued a memorandum outlining its game plan for the critical Virginia elections at the end of the year.

The memo outlined the Democrats’ state campaign wing’s early investments in the various races, including an “ongoing seven-figure investment” in state House contests, and the expansion of its target map to include the lieutenant governor’s race.
