On the evening of July 18, a group of citizens from Northumberland, Westmoreland, King George and Prince William counties demonstrated on the lawn of the Westmoreland County courthouse, Montross, to call attention to Rob Wittman’s absence from the District, and, Trump’s cooperation with Valdimir Putin.
Demonstrators were on the courthouse lawn from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Many people driving by slowed to read the signs then either honked or gave “thumbs-up” in support.
On November 5, 2018 we in Virginia will vote for all eleven of our members of the House of Representatives and for one of our Senators. Below you will see the order that names appear on the ballot.
This may be a bit confusing as this list shows the candidates in all eleven Congressional districts. On your ballot, you will see ONLY the race for your district. For example, in Congressional District 1, you will see the names of Wittman (R; incumbent) and Williams (D) in the House race, and, Stewart (R), Kaine (D; incumbent) and Waters (L) in the Senate race.
Here are some important deadlines.
The Northumberland County Democratic Committee will hold its next meeting:
David Cariens will discuss the school shooting massacres and what it will take to stop the carnage. He will relate what our legislators need to do to diminish this nightmare in America.
Vangie Williams, our 1st District Candidate for Congress will address the group. Vangie will let us know how we can elect this fantastic person to Congress.
Thanks in advance for your attendance and support.
