Virginia Republicans are stepping up their criticism of the rhetoric being used by their Democratic opponents in abortion-focused messaging in this year’s critical legislative elections.
Gov. Glenn Youngkin, R-Va., speaks to David Rubenstein during an interview hosted by the Economic Club of Washington, Tuesday, Sept. 26, 2023, in Washington.
Republican staffers and campaign operatives in Virginia have been arguing for weeks that Democrats are overreaching or outright lying in their messaging. But the conversation escalated Tuesday after Joel Griffin, the Democratic nominee in a competitive Fredericksburg-area Senate race,“Tara Durant supports letting Virginia ban abortions with no exceptions. ... She supports letting Virginia force a 10-year-old rape victim carry to term,” female speakers warned in the video.
Durant, a current member of the state House who has said she backs the governor's 15-week proposal, responded by saying Griffin had “crossed a line” with the new ad.
