The General Election on November 7, 2017,  will be brimming with offices & candidates, both local, district, and state-wide.  This the first year of staggered term elections for the Prince George Board of Supervisors and for the School Board.  There will also be elections for the Virginia House of Delegates in all three of the districts that trisect Prince George County.  Additionally, there will be statewide races for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and for Attorney General.  But wait, there’s more …

On November 7th, there will also be a special election to fill the seat of the Prince George Treasurer, as Jean Barker has announced that she will retire at the end of the year.  The Circuit Court set that date as the date of the special election.  Candidates must file for that seat by August 18 and Katherine Tyler, the Prince George Registrar, advises that the candidate packets will be available for pick-up soon.

What happens at Rotary gets spread far and wide, it doesn’t stay at Rotary …

Both Bill Gandel and Floyd M. Brown, Jr., announced at the Prince George Rotary today that they intend to run for the Board of Supervisors (BOS).

You may remember that due to the adoption of staggered terms by the Board of Supervisors, this will be the first year that there will be only one BOS seat open in each of the two election districts in the county.

William F. “Bill” Gandel, has experience as a BOS member having served from 2011 through 2015. He is running for election from District 2.  His opponent is incumbent, William “Bill” Robertson, who is currently the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors.

Floyd M. Brown, Jr.,

Running from District 1 is our Committee’s own Floyd M. Brown, Jr. or “FJ” as we affectionately refer to him.  FJ plans to run as a Democrat! At this time it is not known if Jerry Skalsky is going to run again or whether there will be other contenders.

 

We have also had at our Committee, Leila Holmes, who is running for School Board from District 2 with no incumbent.  The current school board member, Reeve Ashcraft, will finish college, so has announced that he will not run again.  We think the county will see him in office again one day. Leila has applied for membership in the Prince George Dems, but due to election laws may not run as a Democrat for a school board seat.

We will keep you posted on the candidates as the field emerges. Oh, it’s politics season.
