Will He or Won’t He? Virginia’s Youngkin Eyes 2028 as Speculation Swirls

Published 7 months, 3 weeks ago
Description


Everyone wants to know “what’s next?” So, when the outgoing Republican Governor of Virginia carries a 54% approval rating from a blue-ish (purple?) state into speaking invitations at the Iowa and South Carolina which happen to hold two of the first three Presidential primaries in 2028, the questions start flying.


To be fair, they have been flying before and Governor Glenn Youngkin has become very adept at deflecting them with a quick, “I’m just focused on making Virginia the best state for (insert what ever event he is at when he’s asked) and that’s a full-time job.” However, in just a few months he won’t have that job anymore so, will he or won’t he?


We asked experts in Virginia politics and campaigning to give us their reading of the T.E.A. Leaves. Chris Saxman, former Delegate to the General Assembly and publisher of “Virginia FREE” business newsletter and Zach Werrell, campaign architect for Dave Brat’s upset victory over Rep. Eric Cantor in 2014 tell us what THEY think this means.
