The state Republican committee finished counting the votes in Saturday’s primary and Winsome Sears was elected to represent the party in the Lt. Governor’s race.
Winsome Sears, an “unapologetic” conservative who was the first Black Republican woman elected to the Virginia General Assembly, captured the party’s nomination for lieutenant governor Tuesday night, outlasting former Del. Tim Hugo of Fairfax County in a fifth round of ballot counting from Saturday’s state GOP convention.
Sears, who emigrated from Jamaica at age 6, joins Del. Jason Miyares, a Cuban American who is running for attorney general, on a GOP ticket headed by Glenn Youngkin, the party’s nominee for governor.
The GOP will likely take on former Governor Terry McAuliffe in the November. The Democrats will conduct their primary in June to round out their ticket.
