"Virginia's 2023 Primary Elections: Abortion, Polls, and Nominations"
TL;DR Summary
Abortion is a major issue in Virginia's primary elections, with Democrats and Republicans both using it to drive out voters. The state's split legislature has made it difficult for the Republican governor to pass a proposed 15-week abortion ban. In the Democratic primary for the state's 13th Senate District, former Del. Lashrecse Aird is challenging state Sen. Joe Morrissey, a self-described "pro-life" Democrat. Aird has received endorsements from prominent Democrats and abortion rights groups. Republicans are also speaking about abortion, with State Sen. Siobhan Dunnavant outlining her position in an ad. Polls close at 7 p.m. EST.
