Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin<\/a> is conducting a 2024 litmus test on abortion by urging state Republicans to support a 15-week ban ahead of next month\u2019s legislative elections.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The governor is helping GOP candidates running in Virginia\u2019s Nov. 7 elections<\/a> for all 140 seats in the General Assembly potentially align themselves with a 15-week limit on abortion with exceptions for rape, incest and the life of the pregnant women as a “reasonable” and “common” approach, The Washington Post reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A $1.4 million ad blitz funded by Youngkin\u2019s Spirit of Virginia group promoted the policy, saying, “Here\u2019s the truth: There is no ban.”<\/p>\n

Next month\u2019s election in Virginia is the only major race in the country ahead of the 2024 presidential and congressional elections, so Youngkin\u2019s strategy is viewed a critical test for national Republicans who have struggled on a common pro-life message since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.\u00a0<\/p>\n

GLENN YOUNGKIN PRESSED ON 2024 PLANS AS SPECULATION SWIRLS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Though Democrats running for Virginia\u2019s General Assembly out-raised Republicans in September, Youngkin has drawn from his national fundraising \u2013 which has seen surges amid the governor\u2019s own flirtation with a potential presidential run \u2013 to throw support behind helping the state GOP maintain control of the House of Delegates and flip the Democratic-controlled Senate, the Post reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If he succeeds, it will give him more leeway to push a conservative agenda not only including limits on abortions but also tax cuts, stricter criminal justice laws and more lenient environmental restrictions. <\/p>\n

In the 2022 elections, national Republicans<\/a> were caught flat-footed on the abortion issue, while Democrats successfully rallied support in many races after the Dobbs ruling. <\/p>\n

“There was no Republican response, none, and the results were tough in the \u201922 midterms,” Zack Roday, a spokesman for Youngkin\u2019s Spirit of Virginia PAC, told the Post. “Republicans didn\u2019t talk about where they were. They didn\u2019t swat back the misstatements, the sometimes outright lies.”<\/p>\n

Taking a beating by some pro-life groups,<\/a> GOP presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump said it could be detrimental for the Republican Party in 2024 if they don\u2019t reach a consensus on abortion, describing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis\u2019 support of a 6-week abortion ban as a “terrible thing.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Youngkin\u2019s strategy, which seeks to provide a roadmap for how to tackle abortion on the state and federal level, could prove risky to his own national prospects, as not many Republican candidates running in his state have embraced the 15-week restriction ahead of November. The media tracking firm AdImpact found that abortion is mentioned in 42% of ads aired by Democratic House and Senate candidates in Virginia through Oct. 17, compared to just 3% of those aired by Republicans.\u00a0<\/p>\n

YOUNGKIN DISMISSES SPECULATION OF 2024 PRESIDENTIAL RUN, SAYS HE’S FOCUSED ON VIRGINIA’S ELECTIONS<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Virginia Democrats in turn have flooded ad dollars into arguing Youngkin\u2019s strategy equates to a “ban.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I hope they keep it up,” Democratic Party<\/a> of Virginia chairwoman Susan Swecker told the Post of Youngkin’s ad campaign. “We\u2019re the only Southern state that doesn\u2019t ban abortion and [protecting access] is something that resonates across the commonwealth in all social, economic and diverse communities.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
