With one month to go until the only two state Gubernatorial elections of 2025 in Virginia and New Jersey, signs seem clear that the Democrats are in very good shape.
This is not a time to “rest on laurels”, but Abigail Spanberger in Virginia and Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey are ahead of their Republican opponents, more so the case in Virginia.
Both are women with military careers and national security backgrounds, and their opponents are horrendous alternatives, particularly so in Virginia.
Spanberger served in the CIA, and Sherrill was a Naval Aviator.
So hopefully, there will be a continuation of a “Blue Wave”, which has been showing up in less publicized races to fill state legislative seats and other local races, or House of Representatives vacancies, across America.
