"TRUMP WASN'T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT,' according to Pollsters, wrote Trump in a Truth Social post after a slew of candidates he endorsed were defeated in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia. In the Virginia gubernatorial election to decide the successor of Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin, Democrat Abigail Spanberger defeated Republican Winsome Earle-Sears, flipping the state blue."
"VIRGINIA AND NEW JERSEY, REMEMBER THIS: A VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN MEANS SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER ENERGY PRICES, A VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT, ESPECIALLY THESE TWO LOSERS WHO ARE RUNNING, MEANS A DOUBLING, TRIPLING, AND EVEN QUADRUPLING OF YOUR ENERGY COSTS. IT WILL NOT BE SUSTAINABLE, AND YOU WILL RUE THE DAY THAT YOU VOTED TO DESTROY YOUR LIFE! FAILING TO VOTE TOMORROW IS THE SAME AS VOTING FOR A DEMOCRAT. FIND YOUR VOTING LOCATION."
Donald Trump blamed the Republican Party's losses on his absence from ballots and on a shutdown in a Truth Social post. Several candidates he endorsed were defeated across New York, New Jersey, and Virginia. Democrat Abigail Spanberger won the Virginia gubernatorial race over Winsome Earle-Sears, flipping the state. Democrats also captured the Virginia attorney general seat with Jay Jones and defeated Jack Ciattarelli in the New Jersey gubernatorial contest with Mikie Sherrill. Trump's endorsement moves in New York, including backing Andrew Cuomo, complicated the Republican campaign and he framed the choice as decisive for energy costs.
