Close races coal country! Our expert can help explain what might happen in Virginia this Tuesday

This Tuesday may be the most watch midterms in decades. Though it is quickly coming cliché to say this might be the ‘most important’ election to date…it is definitely the most important election since the last election.

In Virginia – it’s a fight for key Congressional seats as well as for Senate.

The thing to keep in mind is, midterm voters are not the same group as general election voters, in Virginia, it’s the seniors vote that shows up and demands to be heard.

As well, with President Trump keeping his commitment to coal – will that play a part?
