Posted on December 3, 2025

VICTORY! Charlottesville Dems were busy right up to the watch party on Election Night 

A standing-room only crowd at the Random Row Brewery chat excitedly and watch large-screen TVs above to learn about the winning Democratic election results on Election Night 2025.

The standing-room-only watch party of Watch Party of Cville Dems and& and Albemarle Dems Watch Party at Random Row Brewery turned into a huge celebration – and a big part of a national Democratic party celebration – once the results came in that Abigail Spanberger would be Virginia’s first female governor. That Nov. 4 election night, 

Tthe good news continued as Ghazala Hashmi becamewon as Virginia’sour first Muslim woman to hold statewide office – Lieutenant Governor, and to complete the trifecta, Jay Jones won as Attorney General. All that hard work from our volunteers and voters, every bit of it, paid off at the polls.
