Political observers have already placed their bets on U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine, predicting the Democrat will win his third term in November.

This undated photo provided by the Hung Cao for Virginia campaign shows Cao. Cao is one of five Republicans in Virginia who are running for a chance to try to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine . The states Republican primary is scheduled for Tuesday, June 18, 2024. Cao has the most campaign money and experience running for higher office among the primary candidates, and he has the endorsement of former President Donald Trump .

Cao told the AP that Kaine is a “rubber stamp” for Biden, while the GOP base is energized to end Kaine's 30-year political career. Eddie Garcia is a U.S. Army veteran and former Army liaison in Congress who owns a mobile app that serves military veterans. Chuck Smith is a Marine veteran, former Navy JAG commander and an attorney.

Cao told the AP the story was “a hit job” and “there's no there there.” He elaborated further to radio host John Fredericks, stating that the money had to go to start-up fees, lawyers and “compliance people.” As a candidate in 2021, Youngkin did not disavow Trump but he kept him at a distance. Youngkin also focused on state and local issues, such as parents’ frustrations over pandemic school closures and pitching an end to the state’s grocery tax.
