VA-GOV: Earle-Sears campaign bus catches fire en route to event [View all]

Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R), who’s running for governor, said Thursday her campaign bus caught fire while traveling to an event in the final stretch before Election Day.

“While en-route to an event, our campaign bus caught fire. Everyone is safe,” Earle-Sears wrote in a Thursday statement on X.

“Thank you to the first responders who got to the scene quickly — we are so grateful for you,” she added.

Her Democratic opponent, Abigail Spanberger, expressed relief that no one was hurt.
