“We beg to differ,” A team account for Sears posted in response along with a photo of Sears holding an AR-15 rifle.

“I’m telling you that what you are looking at is the American dream,” Sears said during her victory speech early Wednesday morning.  

“When I joined the Marine Corps, I was still a Jamaican. But this country had done so much for me, I was willing, willing, to die for this country,” Sears said, a Marine Corps veteran, said in her speech.

Hill was widely criticized for her tweet on Twitter.

“white supremacy is electing the first black woman lieutenant governor,” The Blazeโ€™s Jennifer Oโ€™Donnell tweeted. “got it.”

“Thatโ€™s a lot of BS,” Media Research Centerโ€™s Nicholas Fondacaro tweeted. “Virginia just elected this powerful black woman as lieutenant governor. Her name is Winsome Sears btw.”
