VA-LG: Buttigieg endorses Levar Stoney (D) for Virginia lieutenant governor [View all]

Pete Buttigieg is endorsing former Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney (D) on Monday in the race for Virginia lieutenant governor ahead of the June 17 Democratic primary.

“As a mayor, I know leadership starts on the ground—and no one understands that better than @PeteButtigieg. I’m proud to have his endorsement in our campaign for Lieutenant Governor,” Stoney said in a post on X.

“Mayors know how to lead—and it’s time to bring that experience statewide,” he added.

Six Democratic candidates are running to be Virginia’s No. 2 official: local labor leader and former Labor Department economist Alex Bastani; state Sen. Ghazala Hashmi; Prince William County School Board chair Dr. Babur Lateef; state Sen. Aaron Rouse; Georgetown University Law Center professor Victor Salgado; and Stoney.
