March 7, 2025Virginia Democratic Lt. Governor Candidates (Alex Bastani, Ghazala Hashmi, Babur Lateef, Aaron Rouse, Victor Salgado, Levar Stoney) Debate - Live blog, highlights
Great post. Thank you so much. It’s hard not to see how many questions are about education, children’s success, and inclusivity. This is why I’m supporting LaTeef, who has been a steady hand not only improving PWC Schools regarding test scores and graduation rates, but doing so in ways that help each student create the best educational plan within a very dynamic, ever changing world. I would not have said this about PWC schools 15+ years ago. The role of the LG has always been a rather amorphous one. But bringing in LaTeef allows him to focus on aspects of state government in education in a way that couldn’t be more timely, given the turmoil at the federal level. Quality education must be available for every Virginia student - and LaTeef is ideal to tackle this. More on reddit.com

October 24, 2024Trump says debate former Virginia governor supports killing babies after birth. Why this is a lie.
It comes down to this famous clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6WD_3H0wKU&t=2324s
The governor speaks very ambiguously about abortion in a way that could be interpreted as advocating for post birth abortion. I think it's a particularly uncharitable interpretation of an unfortunately ambiguously phrased point, however this sort of cherry picking does seem pretty normalized in current politics.

Virginia gubernatorial candidates debate trans youth rights as LGBTQ+ voters weigh a fraught moment - WTOP News
October 26, 2025 - The ads mirror the battle lines of their recent debate, in which Earle-Sears described trans students as a safety threat, and Spanberger declined to say whether she would rescind the measure signed by Youngkin requiring students to go only to the restrooms of their birth gender. Jacey Clay, a trans woman on that board that organized the pride celebration, said the way trans people had been described in the governor’s race felt divorced from her reality.
