An A2 Insights poll shows Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears narrowing the gap against Democrat Abigail Spanberger in Virginia’s gubernatorial contest, placing the race within the margin of error as voters head into the final stretch before November’s election.
Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears is now just three points behind former Democrat Rep. Abigail Spanberger in the race to become Virginia’s next governor, according to a new survey. The A2 Insights poll, conducted September 26–28, shows Spanberger with 47.7 percent support and Earle-Sears with 44.6 percent, placing the contest within the poll’s margin of error.
The tightening poll comes after a series of controversies that have defined Spanberger’s campaign. In September, she faced backlash after encouraging supporters to “let your rage fuel you” at multiple events, a phrase she has repeated on the trail. Earle-Sears, who is running on a message of unity, pushed back by declaring, “Virginia is for lovers — not rage.”
Spanberger recently came under criticism over her answer to a question about trans women playing in women’s sports.
The New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial elections each feature Democratic candidates with a congressional record of supporting trans athletes in women’s sports.
…
Spanberger was the subject of a recent viral interview with ABC13 when she was asked about trans people playing women’s and girls’ sports and using women’s bathrooms. The Democratic candidate did not take a concrete stance.
“So in Virginia, until very recently, we have had a process in place where on an individual, one by one basis, schools, principals, parents, coaches were making decisions based on fairness, competitiveness and safety, where a child might be able or might not be able to play in a particular sport,” Spanberger said.
When asked if she would support a bill that allows trans people in female bathrooms and sports, Spanberger said, “I would support a bill that would put clear provisions in place that provide a lot of local ability for input, based on the age of children, based on the type of sport, based on competitiveness. Because certainly I recognize, I absolutely recognize.
