#election2025

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

People ask you for money. I understand. But why don't we check the latest (well, June 5, not very recent) in campaign finance report numbers for #election2025 ?

(Non-Virginians may not know that we need to protect slim majorities in the legislature AND flip the three statewide offices later this year.)

So, in the #Virginia governor's race:

Earle-Sears, Winsome (R)
$2,959,383 on hand
$9,198,714 raised

Spanberger, Abigail (D)
$14,336,945 on hand
$22,823,842 raised

1/2

@charlesgaba @renewedresistance Absolutely true, except that the statewide ticket is not going to be hurting for money, and — as NYC has shown us — the money race and the vote race are not necessarily the same thing.

If you want to make a donation, your money will go much further down-ballot. Elizabeth Guzman, house district 22, would be a fine progressive choice. #election2025 #virginia

The NYC Democratic primary won't fully be decided until the ranked choice votes are sorted next Tuesday. But it looks like Zohran Mamdani will be the Democratic candidate for mayor of New York in the November election. In March I hadn't even heard of him and he was polling in single digits.
People want a change in direction both locally and nationally. Happy to have ranked him №1!
