2025 battleground election
- See also: Virginia Attorney General election, 2025
Ballotpedia identified the November 4, 2025, general election as a battleground race. The summary below is from our coverage of this election, found here.
Incumbent Jason Miyares (R) and Jerrauld Jones (D) are running in the general election for attorney general of Virginia on November 4, 2025.
According to AP's Olivia Diaz, Virginia's odd-year elections are "seen as referendums on the party in power before Congress heads into midterm elections. ... Democrats’ hold on Virginia has slipped in recent years, moving it close to swing-state status nationally. Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin beat former Gov. Terry McAuliffe in 2021. Still, Democrats have history on their side: The party of the sitting president typically suffers defeat in Virginia’s statewide races. And considering Trump has never won the state, Democrats are probably better positioned to make gains."[4]
University of Virginia Professor Larry Sabato said, "Jason Miyares is the incumbent, which means Jay Jones has a tough race automatically against an incumbent. But go back four years: Miyares beat the Democratic incumbent. How? He had coattails from Youngkin."[5] Sabato said that in 2025, "The greatest threat to Jason Miyares is not really the Democratic nominee. It’s Donald Trump. It’s coattail."[6]
Miyares was elected attorney general in 2021. The Virginia Scope's Brandon Jarvis said, "Miyares argues that Virginia is safer today than it was when he took office, pointing to declines in murder and overdose rates as the centerpiece of his reelection pitch to voters."[7] Miyares said he "secured over $1 billion in opioid settlements" and "launched Operation Ceasefire ... a multifaceted approach to fighting violent crime by focusing on violence intervention in communities and aggressive prosecution of violent gun crimes."[8] As of July 13, 2025, the Republican Attorneys General Association pledged $2 million to support Miyares' campaign.[9]
Jones was an assistant attorney general in the Office of the Attorney General for the District of Columbia and represented the 89th District in the Virginia House of Delegates from 2018 to 2021. Jones said he is running "to protect Virginia families — from crime and violence, corporate price gouging, and politicians with extreme agendas attacking our rights and Virginia workers."[10] As an assistant attorney general in Washington D.C., Jones said he "took on the gun lobby to keep families safe from violent crime, sued corporate special interests to prevent higher grocery prices, and went after big banks and slumlords preying on consumers."[10] As of July 13, 2025, the Democratic Attorneys General Association pledged $1 million to support Jones' campaign.[11]
Jones has tied Miyares to Trump and his policies, including the federal workforce cuts. Virginia has approximately 145,000 federal employees, or roughly 5% of the state's workforce.[12][13] Jones said, "Federal workers are under siege and they've not done a single thing to protect us, to do the job that [Miyares] was elected to do."[14]
Miyares casts himself as the public safety candidate, saying, "More Virginians are alive today than when I took office because our murder rate has dropped one-third... in our targeted ceasefire cities, [it] has dropped 66 percent."[14] Miyares added that Jones was one of the "most left-wing legislators ever in the history of the Virginia legislature" and was unqualified for the job because he never served as a prosecutor.[14]
The results of this election, and the state's gubernatorial election, will determine Virginia's triplex status. A triplex is when one political party holds the governor, attorney general, and secretary of state offices. In Virginia, the governor appoints the secretary of the commonwealth.
Virginia switched from a Democratic to a Republican triplex following the 2021 elections of Youngkin and Miyares. Youngkin appointed Kay Coles James (R) secretary of the commonwealth when he took office in 2022. The state will remain a Republican triplex if Miyares and the Republican gubernatorial nominee, Winsome Earle-Sears, win the elections. It will become a Democratic triplex if Jones and the Democratic gubernatorial nominee, Abigail Spanberger, win the elections. If one Republican and one Democrat win either of the races, Virginia will have a divided government.

Jason Miyares completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2021. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Miyares' responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- The victims of violent crimes are too often ignored and forgotten in Richmond. An out-of-control, corrupt parole board has let repeat felons, rapists, murderers, cop killers, and child abusers out of prison, back in our neighborhoods and communities. In addition, Virginia’s murder rate is at its highest since the turn of the century. Jason Miyares will put an end to the criminal first mindset that currently controls the Attorney General’s Office. He will prioritize public safety, enforce commonsense laws that protect our communities and ensure that violent, repeat offenders stay behind bars and off our streets, serving the time they were given.
- Small businesses and entrepreneurs are struggling under high taxation, litigation and regulation coming out of Richmond. Jason Miyares will fight to preserve Virginia’s Right to Work status and is a passionate believer in a “bottom-up” economy that doesn’t favor big corporations but instead supports the policies that allows small business owners to grow, thrive and most importantly, hire.
- It is time we stand with those that fight to keep our communities safe and secure. Jason believes that we should be funding the police, instead of defunding them, and be giving them the tools they need to succeed. He will protect qualified immunity and make sure that law enforcement officers who risk their lives everyday to protect our communities know that they are supported.
Recreate a pro-business Virginia and support small businesses
Stand with law enforcement
Restore law and order
Fighting human trafficking

Campaign website
Miyares' campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
Trusting our elections process is the cornerstone for a successful democracy. Jason will work to restore the integrity of our elections and ensure that every legal vote is counted.
Law enforcement risk their lives keeping our communities safe and they deserve to know we have their back. As a former prosecutor, Jason continues to stand with law enforcement to ensure they have the support they need to do their jobs.
In Richmond, Jason has a record of defending the 2nd Amendment. We can count on him to protect our constitutional rights from the constant attacks by the radical left.
Socialists Democrats in Richmond continue to put the rights of dangerous criminals ahead of the safety of Virginia families. Jason will always put Virginia first and stand up for victims of violent crime.
Emboldened by their majorities in Richmond and Washington D.C., the Democratic leadership in Richmond is pushing a far left radical agenda that would fundamentally change Virginia. Jason has the proven record and experience to stop them and be the conservative check and balance we need in Richmond. [25] |

Flooding and Hurricane Risk Reduction Hampton Roads and Virginia Beach are at high risk of catastrophic flooding and hurricane threats. Virginia is where Louisiana was prior to Hurricane Katrina and we are woefully unprepared; the time for action is now. If we do nothing the economic devastation to our region would measure in the billions of dollars and potentially thousands of lives lost. That is why I'm continuing to champion legislation and initiatives to tackle both flooding and hurricane preparedness in Richmond
In 2017, I carried legislation regarding the National Flood Insurance Program that requires the Secretary of Natural Resources to issue a report by November 1, 2018, listing any locality not participating in the Community Rating System of the National Flood Insurance Program and recommending any legislation necessary to encourage participation, which would lower flood premiums for our homeowners. I'm proud that this legislation passed with bipartisan support and was signed into law.
Finally, I'm am championing the Hurricane and Flooding Risk Reduction Act of 2017. Rather than wait for the next storm, this legislation is aimed at organizing state government now, rather than after a catastrophic flooding event, to prepare and tackle the host of flooding issues we face in our region. This bill establishes the Commonwealth as a Nonfederal Sponsor of Hurricane and Flooding Risk Reduction Projects. The bill also establishes the Virginia Hurricane and Flooding Risk Reduction Authority, a Board of Directors for that Authority, and a Governor's Advisory Commission on Hurricane and Flooding Risk Reduction. This legislation is critical for Hampton Roads and Virginia Beach as flooding continues to impact our neighborhoods and quality of life. Safe Neighborhoods & Effective Law Enforcement Public safety should always be a foremost priority of all elected officeholders. Keeping our schools, neighborhoods and communities safe from violent gangs and drug dealers is critical to building a safer, more prosperous Virginia Beach.
In 2016, Forbes released an article stating that more Americans have died from drug overdose than car crashes. The devastation Fentanyl, Heroin and opiate addiction has had on families in Hampton Roads, many of whom I know personally, is heartbreaking.
In the General Assembly, I have introduced legislation enhancing penalties for drug dealers, has been highlighted by WAVY-10 for my legislation requiring opiate prescriptions to become electronic to cut down on prescription drug abuse, and for advocating for increased state services to combat this problem impacting Virginia.
I was honored to serve as a Virginia Beach prosecutor (Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney), where I worked hand in hand with our brave officers in the law enforcement community to get criminals off our streets and in prison. During my time in the Office of the Commonwealth's Attorney, I handled over 600 criminal cases and worked tirelessly keep Virginia Beach families safe and secure from violent criminals. Most importantly, I understand that for the victims of violent crimes, making sure that their attacker is put in prison is just one step in the road of healing and recovery.
I am proud in the General Assembly to advance legislation to protect women and the most vulnerable by enhancing the penalties for stalkers, including serving as a co-patron on legislation that provides that a second offense of stalking committed within five years of a prior stalking conviction is punishable as a Class 6 felony.
Virginia Beach remains one of the safest cities of its size in the country and that is not by chance. It is due to the dedication of our brave men and women in law enforcement and the work of so many of my friends in the Virginia Beach Office of Commonwealth's Attorney. I'm proud to have the endorsement and support of so many in the law enforcement community and to continue to be their ally in Richmond. Relieving Burdens on our Entrepreneurs Our jobs agenda has one goal: make it easier for people to work. Our jobs policies aim to create a culture of opportunity where people can empower themselves and flourish in our society. This is accomplished through private job creation and entrepreneurship, healthcare reform, and modernizing education options.
That is why I'm proud to have support the business-driven initiative, GO Virginia, which facilitates greater collaboration between the business community, higher education, and local governments. The budget funds strategic and targeted investments in economic development, while promoting increased accountability and oversight in coordination with our legislative priorities. It also provides incentives for localities to work together to attract out-of-state businesses to their region. It is critical that our region work together to attract out of state jobs to our region.
I am a firm believer that a strong economy is built from the bottom-up, starting with our small business entrepreneurs who create two-thirds of all new jobs in our current economy. Unfortunately, bureaucratic red tape and over-regulation prevents too many small business owners from being able to survive and thrive. The current regulatory system is broken. Onerous permitting requirements have made it extremely difficult, expensive, and time-consuming to do business. Not all regulations are bad or should be done away with, however, they should be transparent, fair, and impose minimal financial burdens on businesses and families. I'm proud to have introduced legislation that would require every new regulation coming out of the state Department of Professional and Occupation Regulations to report within five years the impact that regulation is having on our small business entrepreneurs, whether it is redundant, and whether it is needed. We need to cut through red tape that is hindering our small business owners so they can hire and thrive in our emerging economy. Education - Making Kids #1 I attended public elementary through high school in Virginia Beach and my own daughters attend Virginia Beach public schools. I know firsthand the importance of public education is in our communities and the impact of my numerous extraordinary public school teachers still resonates with me today. They are the reason that our educators are some of our greatest public servants. While in Richmond, I supported a budget to increase funding for Virginia Beach public schools by over $45 million, keeping a campaign promise of fighting for increased funding for our local schools. I'm proud to support funding in Richmond for pay raises for our hard working teachers, and sending $157 million of lottery funds back to local school divisions without any mandates on how the funds must be spent for maximum flexibility. Furthermore, this year's adopted budget exceeded the Governor's investment in K-12 education by $8 million. Education is the key to the future wellbeing of the children of Hampton Roads and investing in education is really about investing in the future workforce that will power our 21st century economy. Like you, I want my own children to be able to graduate from our local public schools with a world class education. Not all children in the Commonwealth today are as fortunate as I was growing up in Virginia Beach public schools. That is why I'm proud to have championed legislation aimed at those trapped in failing school districts that was passed with bipartisan support and signed into law by the Governor. My legislation allowed public charter school applications in at-risk school districts. Virginia Beach public schools are some of the best in the nation, but some Virginia school districts are falling farther behind in individual student growth. This legislation would only apply to those localities in which over 50% of the schools in the school district are classified by the federal government as Title I at risk schools. In these school districts, a charter school applicant can request that the State Board of Education review and remand to the local school board a denied application. This legislation does not remove the local school board's ultimate authority to grant or deny any charter school application. I'm proud to say this legislation was passed and signed into law with bipartisan support. [25] |

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
