Virginia governor's race could be a wake-up call for Democrats

Virginia governor's race could be a wake-up call for Democrats 

Youngkin was leading because 528 includes polls that should be excluded. Why does it do that? Because not doing so may depress McAuliffe turnout. This is a turnout election, not a unity election. Trump is the best thing for Democratic numbers, with the Texas abortion law a close second. 

What the Dems need to do in the future is spend more time explaining why abortion should not be banned (because it would bring back state sovereignty and make every pregnancy loss a public event) and why the GOP approach to education was a bad thing (teaching to the test), designed to punish teachers and fail students. Any parent who dealt with the old testing regime will support Terry, especially Latinos.
