Jay Jones wins Democratic nomination for Virginia attorney general
- Jay Jones secured the Democratic Party’s endorsement to run for Virginia attorney general and will challenge the current Republican officeholder, Jason Miyares, in the general election scheduled for November 4, 2025.
- Jones secured the nomination after narrowly defeating Shannon Taylor, following a hard-fought primary influenced by competing roles of Dominion Energy and Clean Virginia.
- Jones campaigns on a progressive platform centered on defending voting rights, protecting families from extreme agendas, and pushing back against corporate overreach, contrasting Miyares' focus on consumer protection and law enforcement.
- Miyares entered the general election with $2.3 million in campaign funds while Jones works to rebuild his war chest after a costly primary, with both candidates releasing statements on social media about readiness to fight.
- The race sets up one of Virginia's most competitive statewide contests this fall, reflecting broader partisan divisions and calls for Democratic unity against Miyares and his Trump alignment.
