The 2021 Virginia lieutenant gubernatorial election was held on November 2, 2021, to elect the lieutenant governor of Virginia. Republican former state delegate Winsome Earle-Sears defeated Democratic state delegate Hala Ayala. Earle-Sears succeeded Democratic incumbent Justin Fairfax who ran for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination.[1]
Ayala won the Democratic primary held on June 8, 2021, with 38% of the vote. Earle-Sears won the Republican nomination through a convention held on May 8. Either candidate would have become the first female lieutenant governor of Virginia.
Sears won as part of the Republican Party's sweep of all three of Virginia's statewide offices in the 2021 election cycle. With her victory, Earle-Sears became the first female lieutenant governor of Virginia and the first woman of color to win a statewide election in Virginia.
On November 3, Hala Ayala conceded the race.[2]
