Background: Virginia 6th district will be an open seat in 2018, after the Republican incumbent, Bob Goodlatte (Chair of the House Judiciary Committee) from the VA-6th since 1993, announced his retirement last November.
Sunday evening saw this announcement from:
Bobby Goodlatte @rsg , I just gave the maximum allowed donation to Jennifer Lewis, a democrat running for my father's congressional seat. I've also gotten 5 other folks to commit to donate the max. 2018 is the year to flip districts — let's do this!
Monday he put this up:
I’m deeply embarrassed that Peter Strzok’s career was ruined by my father’s political grandstanding. That committee hearing was a low point for Congress.Thank you for your service sir. You are a patriot
So, let us follow his leadership on at the very least, this issue: supporting the Democratic candidate to succeed his father -- and he’s encouraged us to do the same cnn.it/2P5plr5
Any questions? Donate @JenniferForVA. …….. We are tired of the lack of decorum in Congress jenniferlewisforcongress.com
