Abigail Spanberger, Who Thinks It's Ok for Men to Be in Women's Bathrooms, Has Won the VA Governorship

It was a long shot for Republican Virginia Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears, and now it’s over. Democratic Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) has won the gubernatorial race, ending a contest that’s been riddled with drama. Sears had opportunities to turn things around. A white elderly Democrat carried a sign that was primarily seen as racist when Sears spoke out at an Arlington School Board meeting regarding the story of Richard Cox, a sex offender, who camped out at a high school girls’ locker room, claiming to be transgender. Spanberger’s answer to this question was also a trainwreck.

🚨BREAKING🚨

Abigail Spanberger is FINALLY asked a question—It did not go well.

Nick Minock asked Spanberger face to face whether she supported men in Women’s locker rooms.

The following was her answer:

Truth be told, Abby is a bad candidate. Spanberger also said she wouldn’t work with President Trump to increase economic opportunity in the state. She’s the typical brain-dead, woke candidate who only caters to the niche, the illiberal, and the unspooled. And Northern Virginia is packed full of these crazies.

Yet the flip side is that Sears wasn’t a good candidate either. If this were a football game, it would be an epic matchup between two 4-6 teams. 

The government shutdown might not have helped either, as federal workers dot crucial areas—and they’re all anti-Trump, furloughed, and angry. 

Ghazala Hashmi won the state's lieutenant governor race as well.

UPDATE: Blowout confirmed.

I hate to break it to my oomfs, but the model has finally been busted after an incredible run of 5 years.

It made a valiant effort in the closing days by surging over a point towards the Dems, but it wasn't enough to capture the Blue Wave.

Spanberger is going to win by… https://t.co/Mu1gS69wdA
