TheBullElephant: Not surprisingly, Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax has announced a run for Governor next year.
From the Washington Post:
Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax said on Thursday he is formally entering next year’s race for Virginia governor, announcing that he was filing candidate paperwork with the state and laying out plans for weekend kickoff events highlighting his status as a descendant of enslaved people.
“I plan to file today to run for governor of the commonwealth of Virginia in 2021,” Fairfax (D) said in a brief interview as he prepared to gavel in the state Senate for the day.
In 2019 two women accused Fairfax of sexually assaulting them in the early 2000s. Fairfax continues to deny the allegations.
Also running for the democrat nomination for Governor are state Senator Jennifer L. McClellan (D-Richmond), and Del. Jennifer Carroll Foy (Prince William). It is believed former Governor Terry McAuliffe will also join the race. He has raised $1.7 million to put toward a campaign.
On the Republican side only one person has declared a run for Governor, Virginia state Sen. Amanda Chase (R-Chesterfield), but former Speaker of the House of Delegates, Kirk Cox (Colonial Heights) is considering a run. more here
This guy’s a shoe in, because he was raised up knowing the difference between Shinola and what he’s going to be shoveling to his Plantation Dwellers.
The Democratic party is still the party of rape.
Wasn’t former Governor Terry McAuliffe an enabler & advisor to a rapist too?
Virginia is for lovers….
of rape, rape, rapedity, rape, rape!
Republicans can certainly do better than Amanda Chase as their candidate. There’s time, though.
JUICY Fairfax?! 😳
Impressive list of scumbags you got there, Virginia.
Does West Virginia’s offer still stand for everything west of Charlottesville to secede and join forces with their sensible folk?
