Prominent Democratic donors and groups have pushed more than $13 million into Virginia in an attempt to oust Republican politicians from the control of the legislature.

Virginia, one of four states that have legislative elections in November, has been viewed as a pivotal state to recapture power by the nation's most prominent liberal donors and organizations. Those outside players are injecting large swaths of cash into Virginia in hopes of flipping the legislature. Republicans currently possess a one-seat advantage in the state's 40-seat Senate and a 3-seat majority in its 100-member House of Delegates.

The state was identified by the largest liberal donor network as being central to their goals of taking back progressive power on a structural level. The Democracy Alliance, a coalition of more than 100 secretive liberal millionaires and billionaires, has injected more than $1.83 billion into progressive infrastructure since its inception in 2005.
