Veteran Republican strategist Matt Hurtt returns to the Thursday edition of Light Beer | Dark Money for a deep dive into one of the most closely watched state races in the nation — the battle for control in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
With Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle Sears looking to close strong in the final days before Tuesday’s election and Attorney General Jason Miyares widening his lead after opponent Jay Jones’s violent text scandal, the question looms: could Virginia voters split the GOP ticket?
Matt shares exclusive insights on the latest polling trends, the surge in early Republican turnout, and the $4 million boost from the Republican Governors Association — a sign that national attention and resources are pouring in fast.
The conversation also turns to the political dynamics in Alexandria and Arlington, the potential fallout from the ongoing Schumer Shutdown, and what these results could signal for 2026 and beyond.
It’s smart, strategic, and straight from the frontlines of the fight for Virginia — only on Light Beer | Dark Money.
