Our Prince George Congressional leaders are re-elected!!

We are so proud of Senator Tim Kaine and Congressman A. Donald McEachin! We are also proud of all of our precinct captains and volunteers who made an effort to battle downpours and winds to provide information and guidance to voters on election day. When we get their permissions we will include their names in an upcoming article.

Senator Kane & Congressman McEachin did not carry Prince George County!

What does this mean?  It means we have work to do to advance Democratic principles and leaders in Prince George. We need to be more outgoing and engage in outreach to advance the core principles of the Democratic Party.

We must educate, educate, educate. We must advocate, advocate, advocate, and as Frederick Douglas said, we must “agitate, agitate, agitate.”

But for the moment, let’s celebrate.

Democrats took the House of Delegates, adding three new Congresswomen from Virginia. Our congressional delegation now has a majority of Democrats.

We had someone, for at least part of the day, at every precinct in Prince George County.

We have two superior members on the Prince George County Board of Elections, Dr. Lillian King Boyd, and Denya Hankerson.  They are nonpartisan in performing their duties, but they keep us well informed and they help ensure an impartial election.

 

 

 

Let’s celebrate, rest, recalibrate, and strategize for the extremely important 2019 election year.

 

Authorized by the Prince George Democratic Committee.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We Reelected 44!

At about 6:30 a.m. the day after the 2012 election I am thinking about all of the Prince George Virginia Democrats, the Democrats Without Borders and the Oganizing for America Ground Team who helped reelect President Obama. We also reelected Congressman Bobby Scott in the 3rd Congressional District and we elected Gov. Tim Kaine to the U.S. Senate to succeed Senator James Webb.

There are many people to thank at every level, but this morning, in the limited time I have before going to the Registrar’s office to observe the Canvass, I choose to focus on one group of Democrats — the Precinct Captains and their Poll Crews who braved the frosty morning and evening and the windy in between in the ten precincts in Prince George County.

There are many backstories — Diane is being treated for pneumonia, Cynthia was also

Hearty Prince George Precinct workers Steve Martin, Charlotte Rhodes and Caroline Tobe

phone banking for OFA, James recruited volunteers who had not been part of the Democratic Committee in the past, Carroll forgave me (I think) for calling him at 4 a.m. on Election Day, Le’one, Willie and crew were able to get even Republican voters to smile, and eighty-five year old James Hill steered his crew at Union Branch all day with only a break or two for a sandwich.

Rest up today my friends. Take the rest of the year off (just kidding). Next year we must elect a Democratic Governor in Virginia and reelect one of our Virginia House Delegates, Rosalyn Dance.

N.B. On election eve Delegate Dance called me to check on the Committee’s spirits and to give us a personal boost for the election day ahead. Thank you, Rosalyn. We have your back next year.   DANCE2013
