Today was a good day for the Democrats in the 30th House of Delegates District. This afternoon, the State Board of Elections ruled that Nick Freitas would not be placed on the ballot for November’s Election. They also ruled that no Republican could have their name on the ballot since Nick was never a certified candidate. Nick does have some options 1) he can go to court by suing the State Board of Elections to ask the court to overturn their ruling; 2) he can run a very costly write-in campaign; 3) he can quit and stay home.
This means that Ann F. Ridgeway, the Democratic Nominee, will be the only name on the ballot. Of course this gives Ann’s campaign a huge leg up on this seat. But we still need to raise as much money as possible before the end of the month. We have to report our income and expenses from July 1 — August 31 on or before September 16th. Thank you to all who have already help us but if you can do more to help please DONATE HERE
Again thank you all for the great comments, reposts, and donations. We are one step closer to flipping the Virginia House of Delegates.
