When it started, the Virginia gubernatorial race looked as if it would be a strictly local affair with little national meaning. The commonwealth has gone from red to purple to blue in recent years, its status confirmed when Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump by 10 points.
With well-known Democrat Terry McAuliffe, a former governor, heavily favored to defeat Glenn Youngkin, a Republican businessman making his first political run, the stage seemed set for a predictable finish.
Then all hell broke loose.
The change began in unlikely fashion — with parent complaints over critical race theory and other far-left approaches in schools in Loudoun County, a suburban Democratic stronghold in the northern part of the state. That was followed in quick succession by an enormous McAuliffe blunder and a heavy-handed threat by the Biden Justice Department against dissenting parents.
In a flash, the Virginia race has become the ultimate referendum not just on the Biden presidency but also on much of the culture war engulfing America.
Reflecting sharp national divisions, McAuliffe and Youngkin are in a dead heat, at 45 percent each, according to a USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll released Tuesday.
