Source: Kate Magee Joyce/Youngkin for Governor Campaign via AP While Terry McAuliffe, the former governor of Virginia and current Democratic nominee for the 2021 has been typically polling ahead of his Republican opponent, Glenn Youngkin, his lead tends to be slim. A poll released on Wednesday from the University of Mary Washington provides a different narrative, however, in that Youngkin leads McAuliffe when it comes to likely voters.
McAuliffe enjoys support from 43 percent of total respondents and likely voters. While Youngkin, a former Carlyle executive has 38 percent of support from total respondents, that number is at 48 percent among likely voters.
Reporting for Bloomberg, Ryan Teague Beckwith wrote that “Youngkin’s lead is likely due to higher Republican enthusiasm in the contest.”

At the release of this UMW poll, Saxman told Townhall that this “quantifies it and it qualifies it” when it comes to that enthusiasm.
“The reality’s obvious,” Saxman continued, also noting that “the Democrats are less enthusiastic, their early voting is not going well for them” and that “a lot of Democrats think their party’s gone too far to the left.”
Saxman also reminded that in his primary race, McAuliffe beat younger candidates of color, who are to his left.
The results paint a hopeful picture for other Republican candidates as well.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
