Virginia’s GOP governor Glenn Youngkin joined gubernatorial candidate Tim Michels (R-Chenequa) for a get-out-the-vote rally this week in Waukesha. Also speaking at the rally were U.S. Congressmen Bran Steil (R-Janesville) and Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau), as well as state Senate candidate Rob Hutton (R-Brookfield).
Taking the stage at the rally, Youngkin said Democrats like Governor Tony Evers (D-Plymouth) are “agents of chaos,” who are failing the country. “Everything they touch, they make worse,” Youngkin said. The Governor of Virginia pointed to rising crime, inflation, border security, and the spread of fentanyl as issues Democratic policies have made worse. Citing his own experiences in Virginia, Youngkin claimed he saw Democratic politicians “actually let prisoners out of prison who were not even eligible yet for parole, because they were criminal-friendly, they were not victim-protecting.”
Youngkin also touched on how close the race between Michels and Evers is and encouraged rally-goers to find 10 friends and make them promise to vote for Michels. “You got to knock doors, you got to make phone calls. Every head should have a hat, every yard should have a sign, every car should have a bumper sticker,” Youngkin said.
