Northern Virginia Republicans could sway governor's race in key blue stateThe suburbs of Northern Virginia, just outside of D.C., have been steadily trending blue since about 2013 but a shift to the red here could determine who will be Virginia's next governor. In the 2021 gubernatorial race, area Republicans are going hard at bat for nominee Glenn Youngkin in what polls show is shaping to be a very tight race statewide. Democrat Joe Biden won Virginia by 10 points in the 2020 presidential election. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/northern-virginia-republicans-governors-race-blue-state
Parents are unhappy about several issues that may influence the election's outcome. Said Knotts, "From the shutdowns last year to not following the science when it said schools should be open to discussions of divisive racial indoctrination. They call it equity and inclusion, other people call it [Critical Race Theory]."Knotts also cited crime and public safety as important issues in this election. "We’re watching crime skyrocket, from the whole defund the police movement, the [School Resource Officers] out of public schools, fights and other activity going on. There’s a lot of things to do with public safety in general that people are really concerned about right now," Knotts continued.
