Glenn Youngkin’s Spirit of Virginia released a new ad this week highlighting the Republican Party’s desire to change the laws in Virginia to restrict abortion access at 15 weeks with exceptions for rape and incest. New polling from Data for Progress, however, shows that in the competitive Senate and House districts across Virginia, voters do not trust Youngkin or Republicans on abortion.
