Justin Woodford completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2025. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Woodford's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- I am determined to get corporate money out of our state and local politics. Your seeing what the end result of unlimited corporate finance has at the Federal level with billionaires buying our elections and rigging the system in their favor.
- Protecting public education is the highest priority for me. I want our public schools here in Virginia to be the envy of the country. That starts with making sure our public educators are paid appropriately and are fully supported by our state.
- Repealing right-to work in our state and improving workers rights and wages. Wealth inequality in our country is at it's highest level in history and that directly correlates to the gutting of unions. In Virginia we should have the strongest unions in the country.
