new polls show all 3 Virginia statewide races moving toward Republicans | Eastern NC Now

The continuing fallouts from the texts from Virginia Democrat Attorney General candidate Jay Jones fantasizing about assassinating the Republican former Speaker of the State House is having a major impact on all of the statewide races to be voted on next month in Virginia according to new polls.  The disastrous debate performance of Democrat candidate for governor Abigail Spanberger compounds the Democrats problems.

Major independent pollster The Trafalgar Group, in its latest Virginia poll found incumbent Republican Attorney General Jason Miyares ahead of Jay Jones by almost 6 points.  Their previous poll had shown Jones leading by 3 points.  That makes a 9 point swing in that race from Jones to Miyares.

The Trafalgar poll also showed momentum for the GOP in both of the other statewide races, with the Democrat lead in the governor's race narrowing to 3 points and in the lieutenant governor's race to one point.  Democrats had double digit leads in both races two months ago.

In the recent governor candidate debate, Spanberger five times refused to condemn the assassination remarks by her Attorney General running mate Jones.  She also refused multiple times to take a stand on allowing biological boys into school restrooms and locker rooms of girls.

Jones claimed he had an internal poll that showed him still winning by one point.
