The three races below are critical to protect the progress we’ve made and for the upcoming legislative session. We have just a few days left to elect candidates who will support reproductive and voting rights, environmental protection, rule of law, etc. These aren’t our districts, but Democrats are all on one team and we need to show up for each other!
1. Our friends at Rural GroundGame need our help for the final 4 days of District 24’s 1/10 Special Election that will helpfully see Jade Harris win a seat in the House of Delegates!
Jade is the only candidate in the race with solid, local, political experience (she was Vice Mayor of Glasgow, VA) and has worked on funding for community infrastructure and gun violence prevention.
At this point she really needs physical and virtual “boots on the ground” for the final GOTV:
- January 7, 8, & 9 — In-person AND virtual at 10am/Noon/3pm
- Election Day 1/10 — In-person AND virtual at 9am/Noon/3pm
In-person meet-up locations:
Lexington: 11 S. Jefferson St. Lexington, VA 24450
Amherst: (location TBA)
