June 18, 2024 Democratic Primary
- Why should I bother voting in the June 18 primary? The Democrat who wins that primary will run against the winning Republican candidate, VA 5th District Representative Bob Good or VA State Senator John McGuire. We know how useless Good has been. At the March 2 Virginia Trump rally, McGuire stated that he’s running against Good, who’s a “Fake MAGA Never Trumper Traitor.” We could get someone worse than Good! We need to elect a strong Democrat who can flip the 5th.
- What’s on the Tuesday, June 18, 2024, primary ballot? There are four Democratic 5th District Congressional candidates as of March 27: Toby Johnson, Lynchburg school teacher; Paul Riley, Defense contractor/US Army veteran; Gary Terry, CEO of the Danville Boys and Girls Club; and Gloria Witt, President of the Amherst Co. NAACP.
- Meet the Democratic candidates at a forum Saturday, April 27 at 3 pm at the New Flame Church of God in Christ at 308 S Virginia St., Farmville.
