Youngkin was able to pick off a few suburban voters who were scared of the Democrats on education. [/quote]

This exactly, particularly out in Loudoun. Youngkin had tables out and a very organized presence at pretty much every family-oriented Loudoun event, staffed by families, and they were pushing the education line. [/quote]

This election very much reminds me of the 2016 general election in terms of presence.  Not that Trump won in Virginia but you simply don't feel the campaigning effort by McAullife. Not that either had a positive policy message, but at Youngkin's message was a tangible issue while McAullife's message was all about Trump.  Thing is, the only group is bringing up Trump are the Dems and the Lincoln Project grifters while Youngkin (who is clearly a corporatist moderate R RINO) constantly tries to weasel his way out of ties with Trump since the primaries. [/quote]

In both 2016 and this year, Round Hill (western loudoun, went for Youngkin) definitely saw tons of campaigning from the Republicans. This time it was all education-focused. RH has good schools and has a lot of people who left other areas "for the schools" so they were playing into that.[/quote]
