LEXINGTON, VA - Today, The Spirit of VMI Political Action Committee (SoVP) has the distinct pleasure of endorsing Mr. Glenn Youngkin for Governor, Mrs. Winsome Sears for Lt. Governor and Mr. Jason Miyares for Attorney General in the 2021 Commonwealth of Virginia general elections. Youngkin has a proven record of successful and strong business and organizational leadership. The SoVP is confident that with Youngkin as Governor, the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) will not be used as a political pawn in the partisan politics of the Virginia General Assembly. The SoVP interviewed Youngkin earlier this year, which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4ht_oxtALY.
Sears is the first Black Republican woman, the first female veteran and the first legal immigrant woman elected to the Virginia House of Delegates. As a veteran, she understands the sacrifices many VMI graduates make defending this great nation. Sears will serve the Commonwealth with distinction and wisdom as Lt. Governor. Miyares currently represents the 82nd District in the Virginia House of Delegates and is a former criminal prosecutor. Miyares will restore good order, discipline and sound legal advice to the Commonwealth. Previously serving on the Virginia Board of Veterans Services, Miyares also understands the sacrifices of VMI graduates and their service to our nation's armed forces. The SoVP interviewed Miyares earlier this year, which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rDYGWgnj4Y&t=18s The SoVP looks forward to future Governor Youngkin, Lt. Governor Sears and Attorney General Miyares serving the Commonwealth of Virginia with the knowledge that they all agree that "VMI IS GOOD" and they will work with the General Assembly to make VMI even better in the years to come. About: Founded in 2021, The Spirit of VMI supports legislators, state of Virginia government officials, and selected candidates for government office, in order to establish a federation of elected officials who know, understand and value VMI.
