Washington Examiner Chief Political Correspondent Byron York said the two gubernatorial elections next week will give the Democratic Party a chance to show it’s not “dead,” but could also continue its “lost in the wilderness” narrative if it loses.

New Jersey and Virginia will both elect new governors on Nov. 4. In New Jersey, Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli and Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) will face off to succeed Gov. Phil Murphy (D-NJ). In Virginia, voters will choose between Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears and former Democratic Virginia Rep. Abigail Spanberger for the governorship. President Donald Trump and former President Barack Obama are pushing for their respective sides in the final stretch of these races.
