Last weekend at the home of Linda and John Donovan, over 100 guests came out in support of razor-thin races in VA that will determine control of the House of Delegates and State Senate! Sen. Creigh Deeds, former House Speaker Eileen Filler-Corn, and Del Jennifer Carroll Foy roused the crowd for three hot Democratic candidates: Russet Perry for Senate 31, Travis Nembhard for House 22, and Josh Thomas for House 21. Jason Ford, our candidate for Senate 28, also joined the crowd. We raised over $50,000 for these crucial contests. By the end of the evening, a harvest super-moon shone down on the hills of our beautiful county. A good omen!

The Rappahannock County Democrats are heartbroken at the news of Rep. Jennifer Wexton’s decision not to seek re-election next year due to advancing neurological illness. She has been a fierce defender of our rural community since her election in 2018 as one of a trio of young progressive Virginia women—along with Abigail Spanberger and Elaine Luria. She loves the Rapp Dems, which she characterized as “small but mighty!” It was our great honor to campaign for her in the “new” 10th. We understand and support her decision and wish her all the best, and we will hold her spirit in our hearts in our work for all Virginia Democrats.
