Victory in Virginia for the parents, by the parents

FreedomWorks’ Laura Zorc writes, “A couple of weeks ago, Terry McAuliffe said that parents shouldn’t have the final say in their children’s education. His remarks echo the current stance of the Democratic Party at large.

But thanks to the brave moms and dads of Virginia, Terry McAuliffe and allied Democrats are now eating their words.

Parental rights were on the ballot in Virginia’s gubernatorial election. Parents turned out in droves to make their message heard loud and clear that they will no longer be an afterthought when it comes to decisions about educating their children.

We saw incredible energy pick up for the race in just the past couple of months. What was once thought to be a blue win changed to a toss-up. And then, that toss-up turned out to be a clearly defined triumph for Mr. Youngkin.

There’s no doubt about it: Parents drove the momentum for Youngkin’s victory.”
