Who is likely to be the 2025 Democratic nominee for VA Governor?

US Representatives Elaine Luria, Abigail Spanberger, or Jennifer Wexton.
Mayors Kenny Alexander or Levar Stoney.

Which US Senator will Glenn Youngkin run against?
Mark Warner-D in 2026 or Tim Kaine-D in 2030?

Glenn Youngkin-R will make the race competitive but will end up losing.

Mark Warner was just reelected in 2020 and is extremely popular among independents and even the unicorn riding Bigfoots (AKA moderate Republcans).

The one I worry about is Trumpkin's AG Jason Myares. He has already demonstrated some DeSantis tendencies and is more of a TFG sycophant than the current Governor.

I's like to see Wexton run for the Governor's seat. Spanberger is popular in our party, but she sits in a congressional district that cuts through a number of deep red areas of the state. Wexton's seat would be easier to keep if she were elected Governor.
