'Only A Matter Of Time': Epstein Files Release Just 1 Special Election Away

A pollster pinpointed the exact date from when documents on the disgraced financier — and onetime close friend of Donald Trump — may finally come to light.

The release of the so-called Epstein Files appeared to inch ever closer on Tuesday after a special election victory in Virginia narrowed Republicans’ majority in the House of Representatives.

Fairfax County Supervisor James Walkinshaw (D) defeated Stewart Whitson (R) in the race to replace the late Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), who died in May at the age of 75 while still in office.

Once Walkinshaw is sworn in, a petition demanding the release of files on the late, disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender who was once a close associate of President Donald Trump, will be just one signature short of the 218 needed. Democrats and a handful of Republicans have signed.

“We’re now just one vote away from hitting 218 signatures on the discharge petition on the release of the Epstein files,” Adam Carlson, founder of pollsters Zenith Research, noted on X, formerly Twitter.

Carlson pointed to Adelita Grijalva (D), who is running in Arizona’s safely blue 7th District in a Sept. 23 special election, as the likely “clinching vote.”
