Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas)
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) formally threw his support behind Republican Glenn Youngkin in the Virginia gubernatorial race less than a week before the commonwealth's GOP convention.
"Glenn is the best chance Republicans have of winning in Virginia this year," Cruz said in a video message released on Sunday.
The Texas senator referred to Youngkin as a political outsider in the video, highlighting the Republican's past work in the business sector as a private equity CEO.
"He's a successful business leader. He's managed hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. He's done business deals all over the world, and he's taken a strong stand against China," he said. "He knows how to build businesses and to create jobs."
