Stephen Farnsworth, a political scientist at the University of Mary Washington, said that Democrats are unlikely to make many concessions to Youngkin during an election year when the governorship and all 100 seats of the House of Delegates are on the ballot.
“The truth is, the Democrats have no interest in making Youngkin look good,” Farnsworth said. “From day one, there hasn’t been much outreach effort on Youngkin’s side by way of any olive branches to Democratic lawmakers. And they have responded in kind.”
