CANVASS ALERT!

THE RAPP DEMS ARE COORDINATING WITH FAUQUIER TO SUPPORT THE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT CAMPAIGN OF RUSSET PERRY FOR STATE SENATE AND LARRY JACKSON FOR THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES
  • Sunday 9/17 10AM at the Old Hackley Store, 14820 Lee Highway, Amissville. Bring your smartphone with the MiniVAN app on it. (Download the app here for Android or iPhone.)
  • Saturdays from September 24th until November 7. Meet-up places will be announced.
  • Canvassing during the week: please contact Eve Brooks at 540-987-8320 or email to get materials and route numbers.

WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT.

Democrats hold the State Senate by a slim two-vote margin. Our majority has held the line against right wing efforts to destroy abortion access, retract environmental protections, reduce voting access, and roll back the progressive legislation of recent years under Governor Northam. Glen Youngkin’s forces are throwing millions to regain the Senate.  
Russet Perry is running in the new Senate District 31. This race is key to holding the majority and preventing a Republican trifecta.
POLLS SHOW THE RUSSET PERRY RACE IS NOW 50-50. HELP US GET OUT EVERY DEMOCRATIC VOTE AND MAKE THE DIFFERENCE!
