Republican Glenn Youngkin will be the next governor of Virginia, ABC News has projected, putting an end to the commonwealth's Democratic trifecta government.

Republican Glenn Youngkin, a former private equity executive running his first campaign for political office, will be the next governor of Virginia, ABC News has projected.

ABC News has yet to project the winners in the races for lieutenant governor or attorney general.

Around 10 p.m., Democrat Terry McAuliffe spoke at his election night event, but did not concede defeat.

"We still got a lot of votes to count, we got about 18% of the vote out, so we're gonna continue to count the votes because every single Virginian deserves to have their vote counted," McAuliffe said.
