Two Elections And A Ballot Initiative To Watch Today

It’s Election Day!

But it’s an off year; nationwide elections for all House seats and a third of the Senate seats won’t occur until next November. But still, there are a few interesting elections to watch — and here they are.

VIRGINIA GOVERNOR

With a slew of elections in deeply blue states and cities, the biggest election of 2021 is for governor of Virginia. Although President Joe Biden thumped Donald Trump by more than 10 points in 2020, things have gone decidedly south since Election Day.

Most polls in the last week have put Republican Glenn Youngkin and Democrat Terry McAuliffe within the margin of error — although one Fox News poll put Youngkin up by 8 points. But McAuliffe is clearly worried; he’s called on Biden to campaign for his twice, along with first lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
