County Board: Kelly announces for special election UPDATE
Republican Mark Kelly announced for County Board in the special election on March 27. Visit the Kelly campaign site and follow news coverage of the lcoal campaigns. The election will fill the vacancy left by the election of Barbara Favola to the State Senate last fall (see details).
Ms. Favola delayed her resignation from the County Board until Dec. 31. That pushed back the special election to March, leaving the Board seat vacant for three months during budget season. ACRC had urged Favola to resign earlier to permit a January election, but she refused. (See press release.).
Campaign 2012: Contests for President and Senate heat up
Republican voters in four states are casting ballots for President in January (Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida). Virginia's Presidential primary is March 6; absentee voting begins on Jan. 20. Two candidates qualified for the Virginia ballot, and a court upheld that against a challenge from other candidates.
In the race for U.S. Senator from Virginia, five GOP candidates have announced, and one withdrew. The Republican primary for Senate is on June 12.
Keep up with the campaigns! Visit our Campaign 2012 page for info on the candidates, and our news page for current developments in the Va. contests. Then sign up to volunteer for 2012.
In Richmond: GOP gains State Senate
Republicans assumed control of the State Senate in January, with Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling casting the tie-breaking vote. That will help Gov. Bob McDonnell's budget proposal and legislative agenda in the 2012 session. (See more on Virginia political news and state issues.)
Campaign 2011: Election recap
Republicans picked up two seats in the Senate and six seats in the House in the hard-fought state legislative elections of 2011. In Arlington, more than 9000 voters supported GOP Senate candidates Caren Merrick, Patrick Forrest, and Tim McGhee. See more on statewide election results and the local GOP campaigns.
