VA-GOV: Gallego campaigning for Spanberger ahead of Virginia gubernatorial race [View all]

Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.), seen as a potential 2028 presidential contender, will be campaigning for Virginia gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger (D) on Thursday ahead of Virginia’s elections next week.

The event is billed as a “Latinos for Spanberger” event in Alexandria, scheduled less than a week before voters will decide between Spanberger and Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R) as their next governor of Old Dominion.

Gallego joins a list of prominent Democrats and widely floated 2028 White House hopefuls who have or will be campaigning with Spanberger in the final stretch before the Nov. 4 election, including former President Obama, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D), former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D).

Top Democrats have also campaigned or have announced plans to rally with New Jersey gubernatorial candidate Mikie Sherrill, who’s running against Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli to succeed term-limited New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D).
