Former president Donald Trump gloated Tuesday night as results from the Virginia gubernatorial race trickled in.
With 85 percent of precincts reporting, Trump-backed Republican Glenn Youngkin maintained a solid lead over Democrat Terry McAuliffe, in a state that Trump lost by 10 points in 2020.
"It is looking like Terry McAuliffe's campaign against a certain person named 'Trump' has very much helped Glenn Youngkin," Trump said in a statement from his Save America PAC. "All McAuliffe did was talk Trump, Trump, Trump and he lost! What does that tell you, Fake News? I guess people running for office as Democrats won't be doing that too much longer. I didn't even have to go rally for Youngkin, because McAuliffe did it for me. Thank you to the MAGA voters for turning out big!"
