The irony! The Republicans got public school parents frustrated by the pandemic to vote for a rich guy who sends his kids to an elite Catholic school in DC. Virginia Democrats have to show NOVA parents that these guys hate public education. Republicans even tried to use parents exasperation with their kids at home in the 2022 election, long after schools had reopened. Virginians have to reclaim the education message.
