Briefs & Currents

November 1, 2025

VPAP was founded on the belief that nonpartisan insight into campaign finance data is essential for an informed electorate. Civics Navigator is our commitment to making that data accessible and engaging for all Virginians.

In this edition of Civics Currents, you'll find:

  • opportunities to learn from our civics education events
  • a new educational resource for exploring Virginia political ads
  • links to interactive maps sharing the fundraising context of all Virginia elections

Thank you to everyone who joined our Before Virginia Votes event, bringing together citizens and experts to discuss the key issues facing the Commonwealth this election cycle.
