The Importance of Voting

The Falls Church News-Press published an article on Wednesday noting that voter turnout for the election on November 3 is expected to be quite low. It is critically important that Virginians across the state get to the polls on election day to vote for Creigh Deeds, Jody Wagner, and Steve Shannon.

Over the past several elections, Virginians have chosen Democrats to move the Commonwealth forward. Allowing the Republicans to win on November 3rd would move Virginia backwards.

Virginians have had the opportunity to read Bob McDonnell's thesis over the past several weeks and see the views that he holds about women and families. The Washington Times, in an article published today, notes that Republican Attorney General candidate Ken Cuccinelli has "...described himself as perhaps the most conservative State Senator from Northern Virginia in his lifetime."

The leadership of Bob McDonnell, Bill Bolling, and Ken Cuccinelli would erase the progress that has been made in Virginia. It is important that Democrats across the state realize the importance of the election on November 3rd and come out to the polls in support of Creigh Deeds, Jody Wagner, and Steve Shannon.
