Stephen Farnsworth, director of the University of Mary Washington’s Center for Leadership and Media Studies, believes the distinction Youngkin is now attempting to make is unlikely to influence voters.
“In these highly partisan times, subtle policy distinctions within a party are not going to move a lot of voters,” he said, noting that while Youngkin now acknowledges Biden’s legitimacy, “for months he has emphasized election integrity as a key component of what needs to happen going forward, just like the former president has.”
