Openly supported DOGE in a state with 340k federal employees, among other really dumb things she's done.

On the flip side, Spanberger is one of the brightest up and comers in the party. She's shown the ability to go into a right leaning district and take it. I think she wins this thing going away and don't write her off in 2028.
