Businessman Glenn Youngkin’s gubernatorial campaign is surging in the final days of a tight Virginia race that could be an indicator for the results of the midterm elections in 2022.
The Democrats will be fighting to hold onto their slim majority in the House and Senate next November.
Youngkin is up by 8% over former Virginia Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe in a new Fox News survey concluded Wednesday, a sign the GOP candidate is gaining momentum as the race nears the finish line. With several other, less recent, polls showing the candidates locked in a dead heat, the Real Clear Politics polling average has Youngkin up by 0.9%, well within the margin of error.
