Help Jack Trammell Get Elected by Phone Banking!

A special election is coming this Tuesday, January 7, and there’s an important phone banking opportunity. Jack Trammell would like volunteers to help him win the VA Senate District 10 seat John McGuire vacated when he unfortunately won the 5th District race. Trammel is the Democratic nominee in the special election for the seat (his nomination received strong support from the SD-10 Democratic Nominating Committee).

Note that Senate District 10 covers a lot of our Fifth Congressional District. It borders Charlottesville and Albemarle County, and consists of part or all of the following counties: Amelia, Appomattox, Buckingham, Cumberland, Fluvanna, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico (one tiny part), Louisa (Jack’s Home County), Powhatan, and Prince Edward. It includes the more Democratic and populated areas of Ashland, Lake Monticello, and Farmville.

The biggest way to help is to make calls and reach as many voters as possible (some sessions start today!):
