A Clear Vision for Virginia

Forging a New Path Together

As an independent, Donna's focus will always be on the people of the Commonwealth. As governor, Donna will work with you - and for you - to prioritize public safety, build an even stronger economy, expand access to healthcare, and respect your rights across the board.

Like you, she knows we deserve better from our elected officials and from those who have the power to change lives with the stroke of a pen. That is why Donna has cast aside the old playbook of entrenched party politics to run as an independent and give Virginians a real choice in November, one that reflects our practical, common sense values.

Portrait of Meet Donna

Donna Charles is a proud Air Force veteran and former civil servant with over 20 years of experience in national security and foreign policy. She has had the honor and privilege to serve this great country in a variety of roles, including at the State Department, Department of Defense, Capitol Hill, and the National Security Council.

Donna's roots are in the U.S. Intelligence Community, where she worked closely with amazing professionals of all stripes who all had a common goal: to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Public service is a natural instinct for Donna, dating back to her time as a Girl Scout.

Public service is Donna's way of showing gratitude for the wonderful and unique opportunities this great country has afforded her, and there is no greater honor than to serve. That is why she is running to become the next governor of Virginia. She can take her decades of experience in public service to make Virginia an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.
