Unprecedented money flowing in Virginia legislative races; latest reports show Democrats with edge
The Associated Press | November 1, 2023, 2:17 PMRICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia legislative candidates raised $46 million over about four weeks in the month of October, according to newly filed finance disclosures, with Democrats collectively reporting a fundraising edge as this campaign season nears its end.
Democratic candidates for the state Senate raised about $12.7 million between Oct. 1 and Oct. 26 and ended the period with a nearly $1 million cash-on-hand advantage over their GOP counterparts, according to an analysis of disclosures this week by the nonpartisan Virginia Public Access Project. Republican candidates reported raising $10.6 million over the same period.
In the House of Delegates, Democratic candidates outraised Republicans — $14.2 million to $8.4 million . . .

This is where all that Covid money and Inflation Reduction Act money goes. They funnel that money right back into their political campaigns. And Republicans let them get away with it year after year after year.
The number one issue above all others is balancing the budget and denying the Democrat Party the means to syphon off taxpayer money for their political campaigns. Take note, all you Trump/Swamp supporters who think that ending deficit spending will cost Republicans elections.
