Brent from the Virginia Beach Democratic Committee writes RaisingKaine to inform us that, in our interview with David Englin (see below), we forgot to mention an open seat in the 84th district (Virginia Beach). According to Brent: Supriya Christopher is a great candidate, a former news anchor, an army reserve officer, and the wife of a Navy pilot who is fighting in Iraq. She has a great chance of winning this race, it is a good district for a moderate Democrat vs a right wing extremist. The (R) is an attorney named Sal Iaquinto. He is so scared of the competition he has been calling Supriya's friends to find out information and accusing her of trying to "steal" his seat. He even called her "godchildrens'" parents in North Carolina. The gall of this guy to think he is entitled to the seat, Republicans need to be reminded that they are not kingmakers and that we live in a Democracy. Check out her site at www.electchristopherdelegate.com.
Thanks for letting us know about this race, Brent. We'll be keeping an eye on it and rooting for Supriya Christopher!
