Dems outraising AC Cordoza in #HD86 by a 9-to-1 margin after dropping the hammer that Cordoza's a massive predator (especially towards teens) probably doesn't bode well for his chances of re-election

Today is Virginia campaign finance report deadline for period ending Sept 30
Most reports are still out and will be filed by midnight
But Dems starting to spend in House of Delegates
Big numbers even in HD-69 and HD-86 which are considered more of reach seats

HD86 hasn't had an open seat since 1985. Cullin Knutson is betting the Panhandle is ready to change directions.

Virginia's #HD86 looked like it was going to be a competitive race this year until Republican incumbent AC Cordoza got hit with allegations of being a creep towards teens.
The scandal has stuck with him and a recent State Navigate poll found him down by 6.

HD86 is a district Kamala Harris won by 1 point. In 1Q25, Democratic challenger Virgil Thornton raised $55k and had $34k cash on hand, while incumbent Del. A.C. Cordoza (R) raised just $8k and had $32k cash on hand. Let's win this! bluevirginia.us/2025/04/1q25...

Virginia's #HD86 looked like it was going to be a competitive district, but then Republican incumbent A.C. Cordoza was revealed to be a predator towards underaged girls.
Cordoza never really was able to claw back from that and ended up losing this Harris+2 district by eight.
