Lt. Gov. Earle-Sears to Newsmax: Spanberger Couldn’t Answer Questions

Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears told Newsmax on Friday that in a recent gubernatorial debate, her opponent, former Rep. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., refused to give straightforward answers to key questions.

Earle-Sears, the Republican nominee for governor, appeared on “Rob Schmitt Tonight” one night after Spanberger declined to withdraw her endorsement of her party’s nominee for attorney general, Jay Jones, who admitted sending violent texts about a political rival.

“You have an attorney general nominee from the Democratic Party who is saying that he wanted to kill the former speaker of the House, a Republican,” Earle-Sears said. “Not just him, his 2-year-old and 5-year-old children as well. Abigail Spanberger … says she’s disgusted and, well, she’s disgusted and more disgusted.”
