NEWS ALERT: Republican in Virginia drops bid for U.S. Senate seat

0

From Politico: Bryce Reeves has dropped out of the U.S. Senate race in Virginia, leaving Republicans without a leading candidate to unseat three-term Democratic Sen. Mark Warner.

Reeves announced his decision on social media on Sunday and said he will instead seek reelection for the state Senate. Reeves attributed the decision to a “serious family health matter” and timing.

Reeves, 58, launched his bid for Senate in September, highlighting his military and law enforcement background. He has served in the state Senate since 2012.

On Sunday, Reeves conceded that the November election did not favor Republicans but said protecting “this great country” remains his mission.


Reeves’ announcement reads:

Today, after prayerful reflection and conversations with my family, I am withdrawing from the U.S. Senate race. A serious family health matter and the realities of timing require my full attention at home. My faith and my family come first.

I remain fully committed to serving the citizens of Virginia’s 28th Senatorial District and look forward to seeking re-election to my Senate seat in 2027. My work continues in the General Assembly to protect our AAA bond rating, strengthen our economy, and ensure Virginia remains the best place in America for our military and veterans.

This past election was devastating for Republicans across our Commonwealth. We must stop the infighting, regroup, and unite behind principled leadership worthy of our cause.

I am grateful to every supporter and volunteer who stood with us. I am not disappointed, I am prioritizing what comes first.Honor God. Love family. Protect this great country. That remains my mission.
