Courtesy of Stephanie Clifford, here’s video of the three excellent Democrats (Justin Fairfax, Gene Rossi, Susan Platt) running for Lt. Governor of Virginia in 2017, presented in the order they announced their candidacies, speaking to the Virginia Democratic Women’s Caucus meeting yesterday. As David Jonas wrote yesterday here on Blue Virginia, Having Amazing Candidates is a Good Problem to Have. I couldn’t agree more — let the best candidate, with the best ideas and greatest ability to fire up voters, win! Then, let’s go on to holding all three statewide offices when we vote in November 2017.
P.S. Note the contrast in tone and substance between the Democratic candidates on the one hand, and the Republican candidates on the other hand. It’s both striking and highly revealing…
