[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really good piece on how weird the Sears campaign has been.

“Here’s why Republicans ought to be concerned: Earle-Sears is not doing the things a normal candidate for governor would do. I can’t say she’s not working hard because I don’t know what she’s doing; I just know that when it comes to the public part of the campaign, there’s just not much to see. Her running mates, John Reid for lieutenant governor and Miyares for attorney general, are doing the things we expect to see candidates doing. Reid is holding multiple events a day, putting out position papers and conducting interviews. He has a contraption he can use to hold his phone so he can conduct Zoom interviews wherever he can get a signal. Miyares has an important day job but can hardly be called inaccessible. He’s held some kind of event in or near Roanoke every week for more than a month. Earle-Sears, though, is often simply missing from the types of things where you’d expect a candidate for governor to be, such as the trucking association, when she’s in the same town.  If Earle-Sears loses, there will be multiple factors to blame — a poor political environment for Republicans, for instance — but one of them will be that she’s been AWOL much of the time. She hasn’t been completely AWOL, but she’s been absent from enough events that it does raise questions about what she’s doing. A lower-ballot candidate can afford to take a low profile and hope the general tide is in their party’s favor, but the candidate for governor is expected to drive those trends.”
