Description

Radford University Political Science Chair Dr. Chapman Rackaway joins WFIR’s Ian Price for in-depth analysis of Virginia’s 2025 election results — including Abigail Spanberger’s historic win for governor, Democrats’ sweep of statewide offices, and what the results mean for Glenn Youngkin’s legacy and the future of Virginia politics.

Rackaway discusses how national issues — from the federal shutdown to early voting trends — influenced state results, what to expect from a Democratic trifecta in Richmond, and why Virginia’s elections continue to serve as a bellwether for national politics.

🎧 Full unedited interview from WFIR’s “Roanoke Valley’s Morning News.”
