“I wish I could be more hopeful than I am right now, but right now, it just does not look that good for our party going into November,” said Prince William County Board of Supervisors Chairman Corey Stewart.
“There’s a lot of negativity, a lot of attack ads,” Stewart told News4 Monday afternoon. “I don’t think they’re working. I think they’re backfiring, and that is not good news for Ken, unfortunately, in November.
“The [GOP] party has got to recognize times change and running a race that might have been successful 15 years ago doesn’t necessarily work in these times,” Tom Davis said.
Davis noted that northern Virginia now accounts for about one-third of the statewide vote and its share is growing.
“[NOVA] votes more like New Jersey than the rest of Virginia,” Davis said, adding the Republican Party needs to “learn to put together a coalition that makes northern Virginia inclusive and they’ve had a difficult time doing that.”
