“Governor Northam is a leader who never took the easy way out when fighting for Virginia. I can promise you, I won’t either,” said Jay Jones. 

TRANSCRIPT OF “WHAT IT TAKES”

Governor Northam: You know as governor, Trump and I, we went to battle.

Jay Jones: Yeah, you did. 

Governor Northam: There’s no one I trust more to stand up to Trump and Musk than you Jay. You’ve been an assistant attorney general and protected abortion rights. You even sued Glenn Youngkin, when he attacked voting rights. 

Jay Jones: Look I’ll never stop fighting for Virginia families to protect our rights and our workers from Trump’s agenda.

Governor Northam: You’ve got my vote.
