The race to lead the Commonwealth of Virginia just got a little bit more intense.
Currently, there’s the ongoing government shutdown, which shows few signs of ending. This situation has added a new layer of concern for voters and politicians alike.
In addition, disturbing text messages sent by the Democratic candidate for state Attorney General have come to light. These revelations have given the GOP slate of candidates fresh talking points to use in the campaign.
Despite these developments, what remains unclear is whether any of this will change the fundamental dynamics of the race — dynamics that currently favor the Democrats.
