Both governor candidates want to end Virginia car tax

---

It’s called the single most-hated tax in Virginia. And now, the two candidates running for governor this fall are on board with chopping the car tax, but it would have hefty financial implications.
The tax provides major revenue for cities, towns and counties, which levy and collect it.
If lawmakers want to kill it at the state level, they will have to find a way to reimburse the localities for all that lost revenue.
The state estimates the price tag for repealing the car tax would cost between two and a half billion dollars... to three billion a year.
