Abigail Spanberger (D) and Winsome Earle-Sears (R) are running in the general election for Governor of Virginia on November 4, 2025. Incumbent Glenn Youngkin (R) is term-limited.
As one of only two gubernatorial elections-- the other being in New Jersey-- that take place in the odd year following a presidential election, media outlets and political observers have historically paid close attention to Virginia's gubernatorial race. According to USA Today's Savannah Kuchar, "The Commonwealth is heralded as a national bellwether, like clockwork every four years. Held in the odd year after the presidential election since 1869, Virginia’s gubernatorial race is a cyclical scorecard for voters’ moods and the issues at the forefront of the national consciousness."[1][2][3]
In Ballotpedia's May 13, 2025 episode of On the Ballot, The Virginia Scope’s Brandon Jarvis listed education, the state's right-to-work law, and the Trump administration as key issues that the candidates are campaigning on. Click here to listen.
Abigail Spanberger (D) represented the 7th Congressional District from 2019 to 2025. Before serving in Congress, she was a CIA case agent. Spanberger is running on her record in Congress, saying she has "a really clear background and evidence of my ability to build coalitions across party lines...I have a very clear history of bringing people together to...deliver results."[4] Spanberger says she is "focus[ed] on strengthening our public education system, lowering costs for families and keeping our communities safe."[5]
Winsome Earle-Sears (R) is the incumbent lieutenant governor of Virginia. She was elected in 2021 and is running on her record. Her campaign website says, "As Lieutenant Governor, she led reforms across 13 medical boards, championed legislative change, and fought to increase educational freedom, scoring major victories for charter schools."[6] Earle-Sears is also campaigning to continue Youngkin's tax policies, saying, "We’re talking about billions of dollars that we returned to you, the Virginians...We’re going to continue that because that’s part of the reason why our economy flourished."[7]
This election is the first time in state history that the Democratic and Republican nominees for governor are both women. Virginia has never elected a woman to the governor's office.[8]
In 2017, Ralph Northam (D) defeated Ed Gillespie (R) and Cliff Hyra (L) 53.9%-45%-1.2% while Donald Trump (R) was president. In 2021, Glenn Youngkin (R) defeated Terry McAuliffe (D) and Princess Blanding (L) 50.6%-48.6%-0.7% while Joe Biden (D) was president.
Neither Spanberger nor Earle-Sears faced a primary. The Democratic and Republican primaries were scheduled for June 17 but were cancelled after only two candidates filed to run for governor. The filing deadline was April 3, 2025.
In addition to the race for governor, Virginia is also holding elections for lieutenant governor, attorney general, and House of Delegates in 2025.
This race, along with the elections for Virginia's House of Delegates, will determine the state's trifecta status. Virginia has had a divided government, where neither party holds a trifecta, since 2022. Democrats currently hold majorities in both chambers of the General Assembly and Youngkin is a Republican.
The gubernatorial election and the attorney general election will also help determine the state's triplex status. Currently Virginia has a Republican triplex, where Republicans hold the offices of the governor, attorney general, and secretary of the commonwealth. In Virginia, the governor appoints the secretary of the commonwealth.

Donna Charles (Independent)
Donna Charles is keenly sensitive to the pressure Virginians are feeling from economic and political uncertainty emanating from Washington. Donna will work tirelessly to prioritize raising the minimum wage, protect the Commonwealth's social safety net, and expanding access to healthcare, all critical for strengthening families and reduce pressure on valued working class.
Donna Charles' approach to bipartisan governance is taking the "both and" approach. That means working to protect our public schools while ensuring parents can select schools for their children that best reflect their beliefs, values, and aspirations. As a first-generation American, Donna has benefited from parents who came to this country with little and sacrificed everything to send her to the best schools they could afford. She believes that no one should be deprived of the best education available, especially because of their zip code.

Polls
- See also: Ballotpedia's approach to covering polls
Polls are conducted with a variety of methodologies and have margins of error or credibility intervals.[12] The Pew Research Center wrote, "A margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points at the 95% confidence level means that if we fielded the same survey 100 times, we would expect the result to be within 3 percentage points of the true population value 95 of those times."[13] For tips on reading polls from FiveThirtyEight, click here. For tips from Pew, click here.
Below we provide results for polls from a wide variety of sources, including media outlets, social media, campaigns, and aggregation websites, when available. We only report polls for which we can find a margin of error or credibility interval.

Race ratings

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:
- Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
- Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
- Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[26]
- Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.
Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[27][28][29]

The 1868 constitution was ratified in 1869, the same year the state started holding gubernatorial elections, one year after the presidential election.
