Early voting is underway in Virginia, including for a number of tight races in Northern Virginia that could determine congressional control. The chairs of Virginia’s Republican and Democratic parties – Rich Anderson and Susan Swecker – joined us to talk about the biggest races, why the Commonwealth could be up for grabs in November’s presidential race, and the most important issues facing residents. 

The Maryland Senate race remains close between Democrat and Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks and former governor Larry Hogan, despite being a deeply blue state. Maryland Matters reporter Will Ford gave us the state of the race, including how Alsobrooks’ property tax errors might affect the race. Plus, what might come of a lawsuit Maryland filed against the owners of the ship that smashed into the Key Bridge earlier this year.
