Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
DGA Statement Regarding Tonight's Virginia Governor's Debate
WASHINGTON, DC—Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin, Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, issued the following statement regarding tonight’s Virginia governor’s debate:
“Tonight, Virginia voters saw Ken Cuccinelli for who he really is: a desperate candidate willing to say anything to rescue a political career that’s been devoted entirely to a radical ideological agenda. Between his false and flailing attacks, Cuccinelli spent his time pandering to the far-right Tea Party forces who are keeping his campaign afloat instead of speaking to the issues that matter most to middle-class families. Voters saw that Terry McAuliffe is the only candidate with a clear, mainstream vision for how to create jobs, improve schools, and rebuild infrastructure across the Commonwealth. Fortunately for the people of Virginia, in less than two weeks, he’ll be elected their governor.”
