Virginia Democrats attempting to take control of the commonwealth's House of Delegates are banking on a Democratic candidate who was caught streaming sex acts online.
Democrats in Virginia are hoping to take control of the House of Delegates on Tuesday night, and a key race in that quest involves a Democratic candidate who refused to drop out of the race after being involved in an online sex scandal. Susanna Gibson, 40, is running against Republican businessman David Owen in one of the state’s most competitive districts after all 100 seats in the House of Delegates were redrawn to conform with the 2020 Census.
Gibson, a nurse practitioner and mother of two, told The Washington Post that the incident represents 'an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family.' 'It won’t intimidate me, and it won’t silence me,' Gibson added. 'My political opponents and their Republican allies have proven they’re willing to commit a sex crime to attack me and my family because there’s no line they won’t cross to silence women when they speak up.
Republicans currently carry a narrow majority in the House of Delegates, while Democrats hold a slight majority in the Senate. Youngkin has campaigned aggressively on behalf of Republicans in key districts, hoping that GOP control of the General Assembly will allow him to enact his legislative agenda.
