Youngkin’s event with the statewide ticket in Henrico is canceled
The Virginia Republican Party was thrown into turmoil Friday after news broke that Gov. Glenn Youngkin had asked GOP lieutenant governor nominee John Reid to withdraw from the race after an old social media account attributed to Reid showed pictures of naked men.
The Republican ticket — finalized without primary contests — had been set to launch its joint campaign tour across the commonwealth. Those plans appear to be changing, however.
