Are you over 21 and live West of Lynchburg VA? See map.
VA Democrats want to run candidates in every House and Senate District for the 2019 State legislative elections. Only 9 more seats remain to be filled: Seven in the House and two in the Senate, but there are only two days left to register as a candidate. College Students welcome!
Of course, these are bright red districts where Dems have not run for a long time. But like the 50 state strategy, a 140 District strategy sends a powerful message: Democrats will contest Republicans everywhere.
What difference does it make?
For the candidate:
- It’s exceptional political experience
- It’s a great resume item
- It sets you up for a future run or position
- It’s fun
- It’s an incredible coup for a college Political Science major
- You might even win!
For Democrats:
- It makes Republicans spend money everywhere
- It helps turnout for up and down ballot candidates. A Dem House candidate helps a Dem Senate candidate, vice versa, and both help local (town and county) candidates
- It’s a great talking point: “We’re taking on Republicans in every district in VA no matter how red.”
- You might even win!
