RGA Statements on Glenn Youngkin’s VA GOP Convention Victory

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Chairman of the Republican Governors Association Governor Doug Ducey and Executive Director Dave Rexrode released the following statements after Glenn Youngkin’s VA GOP Convention victory:

“Congratulations to Glenn Youngkin on his VA GOP Convention victory,” said Governor Ducey. “His successful career in business brings an outsider’s perspective to a state that has been damaged by years of Democrat control. Youngkin’s focus on getting kids back in schools, rebuilding Virginia’s economy, and fighting for our Constitutional rights make him a formidable candidate. The RGA is excited to work with the Youngkin campaign and we look forward to holding the Democrats accountable in November.”

“We have nominated an exceptional candidate for governor who is going to articulate a clear message as to why, after eight years of the McAuliffe/Northam dynasty, we can’t afford four more years of their failed policies,” said Dave Rexrode. “Terry McAuliffe, who’s currently embroiled in a tough contested primary, is having a really bad day knowing that he’s going to face a strong political outsider in the general election who has proven leadership ability. The party is united behind Glenn Youngkin and is ready to work together to get Virginia back on track.”
