Welcome to the special Democratic primary edition of New Rural Virginia’s newsletter, The Rural Angle! For this special edition of our newsletter, our team has sent a survey to all 2024 Democratic candidates (both those with and without a primary) who qualified for the ballot in the seven congressional districts in Virginia with at least 10-15% rural areas (i.e., CD-01, CD-04, CD-05, CD-06, CD-07, CD-09, and CD-10), as well as to Virginia’s candidate for U.S. Senate. For candidates who responded, we included a link to their campaign website, a photo, and the responses to three basic questions: Tell us about yourself, specifically about how you're qualified to represent the rural parts of the district where you're running? What are the 1 to 3 biggest problems or needs in the rural areas of your district? How do you propose to address these problems/needs in Congress?
The responses are published in this document in numerical order, by Congressional District, and then in alphabetical order by last name. We will also be publishing the responses on a special page on our website and on our social media channels. Where there is no primary, we have noted as such at the top of the section. Don’t forget that Early Voting starts May 3, 2024, with Primary Election Day taking place on June 18th, 2024. To confirm which Congressional District you live in, go here.
