State Democrats launch 7-figure investment in Virginia
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) announced Monday it is investing seven figures in the battle to keep the Democratic majority in Virginia’s House of Delegates.
The committee made the announcement in its “Roadmap to Victory in Virginia” memo, which included its first batch of House of Delegates target races in 2025. The initial target list includes the 21st, 65th, 84th, and 97th House of Delegates races. Additionally, the committee announced it is adding the state’s lieutenant governor’s race to its target map. The lieutenant governor could play a pivotal role in casting tie breaking votes in the state Senate, which is not on the ballot this year.
In the memo, the DLCC accused Virginia Republicans of mirroring President Trump and federal Republicans’ agenda in Washington.
“As we gear up for November, legislative Democrats in Virginia have been on the frontlines of responding to Trump’s chaos and havoc while advancing Democratic policies that support working families,” the memo reads. That stands in stark contrast to Republicans like Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who has blocked much of the agenda passed by the Democratic Legislature to uplift families while expressing support for DOGE cuts that resulted in Virginians losing their jobs.”
