Only a few hours after former Virginia governor Terry McAuliffe clinched the Democratic nomination for his old job, he and his Republican opponent wasted no time getting on the attack.

Glenn Youngkin, the GOP nominee for governor, released two ads late Tuesday aiming to paint McAuliffe as a recycled part of the political establishment and using one of the Democrat’s primary opponents to emphasize the need for new leadership.

“I worked with reasonable Republicans to get things done,” McAuliffe says in his video, which touts his efforts as governor on job creation, health care and infrastructure.

Glenn Youngkin is not a reasonable Republican.

Another ad released by the Youngkin camp on Tuesday relies largely on former delegate Jennifer Carroll Foy (Prince William), the second-place finisher in the Democratic primary, to make a case for him — through spliced clips of her own pre-primary attacks on McAuliffe.

As McAuliffe focused on attacking Youngkin at primary debates, Carroll Foy and the other candidates often insisted that they could turn out more Democratic voters in the fall

But following her primary loss, she said she would fight tooth and nail to “make sure Glenn Youngkin goes nowhere near the Governor’s mansion.”
