Meet Governor-Elect

Abigail Spanberger

Abigail Spanberger grew up just outside of Richmond, where she learned the value of public service early on from her parents. A proud product of Virginia public schools, she received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Virginia.

She has spent nearly her entire life in service to her country, first at the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and later at CIA, before running for Congress in Virginia’s 7th Congressional District in 2018 and winning three consecutive terms. She and her husband Adam are now raising their three daughters in Henrico County.

As Governor, Abigail Spanberger will focus on bringing Virginians together, lowering costs for Virginia families, making our public schools the best in the nation, keeping our communities safe, and more. Abigail Spanberger will always put Virginia first as Governor.
