Ainsley, we are only one day:
Ainsley, we are only one day
away until Virginia voters are
going to head to the polls, and
education is still taking center
stage as candidates. Glenn
Youngkin and Terry Mcauliffe
make their final pitch.
We have a great school
system in Virginia
Dorothy and I have raised our
five children. Of course parents
are involved in it.
The question should be: could
extreme republican bill that
would allow parents to take
books off of shelves should that
be left in the hands with parent
s,
theres no place for
critical race theory in our
school system and while on day
one im going to ban it,
it teaches children to see
everything from a lens of
race and then to divide them
into buckets and have children
that are called privileged and
others that are victims and its
just wrong
Steve. So what do the voters say
in Virginia
joining us right now from
Roanoke Way out? West is Lawrence
Jones.
We just heard Terry Mcauliffe
talk about. You know my wife
and I we raised five kids in
Virginia. They got great schools.
What he did not say is
that four of his five kids went
to private high schools
reporter yeah thats. Exactly
right
right behind me. Guys is a prayer
going on for the Youngkins
rally, but earlier today I had
the opportunity to talk with
younger voters: note that
actually went to public schools.
This is what they had to say:
watch
youre a young voter
yeah.
What is the number one issue
for you?
Oh man, the economy.
You know as a 26 year old
thats, probably the most
important issue in every
election
im very interested in
making sure our governor will
make sure he listens to the
parents, needs and concerns.
I cant vote in this
election, but I will in the
next election and whoever is
elected, will affect me
whats going to happen
tomorrow.
I believe well have a new
governor whose Youngkin, whose a
rep can fighting for us
due this most crucial hour
reporter, so guys you have those
young voters, thinking that
Youngkin may pull this off dead
heat in the polls. Although hes
up one point in Rcp average
eight points in the Fox NEWS
polling guys, it can go either
way tomorrow on Election day

Ainsley sorry, Tond hand it over
