Thank you, Virginia — it has been the honor of a lifetime to serve.

I talked to Maryland Governor Wes Moore (D) as he was on his way down to Richmond for the inauguration of Spanberger. We talked about Spanberger’s campaign, what it means for Democrats running in future elections (like Moore), redistricting, and more.

Voter Fiona Dowell said she voted for Spanberger but was wary about her links to law enforcement. She also said COVID should be taken seriously by the Republican party.
"I'm still very much of the belief that [COVID] is still very much a danger", she said.

[Maxwell Walpole @maxwell_wa2388]

Voter Guinevere Emerson said she wants to see candidates who are respectful to their opponents. She also said the democratic party doesn't focus on issues like Transgender rights.
"I'm a little let down consistently by the Democratic party..." She said.

@VCUCNS is talking to evening voters around VCU.

[Maxwell Walpole @maxwell_wa2388]

Voter Xavier McDaniel says he feels that voting has been settling for the "lesser evil." He also said he thinks the language being used by both candidates is unclear.
"Either be pro something or against it. I don't like the vagueness," he said.
