Abigail Spanberger's Run for Virginia Governor Gains Momentum

Democratic Representative Abigail Spanberger has announced her campaign for Virginia governor, opting not to seek reelection to the U.S. House next year. In her campaign video, Spanberger emphasized her ability to bring people together during a time of national crossroads. Her announcement comes after Virginia Democrats recently gained control of both legislative bodies, dealing a blow to Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin. Other potential contenders for the governorship include Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney (D), Republican Attorney General Jason Miyares, and Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Seares.
