1. “Democrat Abigail Spanberger leads Republican Winsome Earle-Sears by 10 points, 52% to 42% among Virginia likely voters; 6% remain undecided or don’t know.” (Not bad…but 2 points closer than in the last poll.)

2. “In the Lieutenant Governor race, Democrat Ghazala Hashmi leads Republican John Reid by 9 points among Virginia likely voters, 48% to 39%; 12% say they are undecided or don’t know.” (Again, not bad, but 2 points closer than in the last poll.)

3. “In the race for Attorney General, Democrat Jay Jones leads Incumbent Republican Jason Miyares by 6 points among Virginia likely voters, 49% to 43%; 9% say they are undecided or don’t know.” (One point closer than in the last poll; also note that this poll was conducted Sept. 29 to Oct. 1, 2025, so before the recent news about Jay Jones’ texts with Del. Carrie Coyner about Todd Gilbert)

4. “Top of mind issues for Virginia likely voters include threats to democracy (19%), inflation (18%), immigration (10%), and healthcare (10%).” (Only 3% say “transgender policy” is their top issue; K-12 education is at 8%)

1. Blue Wave

This is why the GOP is bloviating so much about Jones' texts
