Just Got a Call from Wayne Powell, Running for Eric Cantor's Seat!

I gave money to Wayne through this thread---

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021056010

Well, he called to thank me! He impressed me as a very sensible, intelligent person. His positions are pro-choice, pro-family, and anti-gridlock. He is dedicated to his country, and he will be a better choice for Virginia's 7th District than Eric Cantor.

He's a veteran, with a son currently serving overseas.

Unlike Eric Cantor, Wayne is having open townhalls for his prospective constituents. Anyone can come, sit, and ask questions.

Check out his website!

Great!

Please check my recent post in Virginia forum, 'comment' to article in Culpeper Star-Exponent. TRYING to read article it references, but can't find it!

AND, I attended Powell's town hall in Spotsylvania and have bumperstickers. Will send some to you, if you'd like. p.m. me.
