With Michael off, WTVR's Cameron Thompson joins Lauren to break down the week's headlines...
IN THE NEWS:
Good vs McGuire: The 5th District Republican primary is still too close to call and likely headed for a recount--though McGuire likely leads by about 300 votes. Still, Congressman Good is already casting doubts about election integrity.
Trump Time: Former President Trump featured heavily in the Good vs McGuire race, and he'll also be showing up at a rally in Chesapeake following this week's presidential debate. Virginia might be in play on the Presidential level this year, and it seems Governor Youngkin is embracing Trump's presence a little bit more.
Senate Session: The Virginia House of Delegates will return to Richmond this week, where it will likely repeal changes to VMSDEP--a tuition waiver program for spouses and children of military veterans who were killed or severely disabled. This follow's last week's Senate meeting that was ostensibly supposed to do the same thing...but that never happened. It seems like there's been some miscommunication in the legislature that needs to be sorted out.
In the 7th Congressional District, the candidates who have raised the most amount of money are veterans--Democrats and Republicans alike. Same thing in the neighboring 10th Congressional District in Loudoun County, where a bumper crop of candidates is vying for attention. We're actually in an era of comparatively few veterans in office, so what does this surge mean for the next generation of lawmakers?
TRIVIA: Which Virginia constitution eliminated the requirement for men to own property in order to vote?

At the Watercooler:
- The Virginia Democratic Convention--a good time, some expensive food, and a pro-Palestinian protest that bodes ill for President Biden's election campaign.
- Cameron talks the NHL -- the Staney Cup Finals between the Florida Panthers and Canada's Edmonton Oilers; Game 7 is Monday night!
