Great advice from the Virginia Department of Elections about voting in today's Primary: Don't worry about the clock—just get in line!! Remember: as long as you are in line by 7 PM, you have the right to cast your ballot. elections.virginia.gov/casting-a-ballot/polling-place-lookup/
Find your polling place and see who's on the ballot in the Aug. 4 primary election. elections.virginia.gov/casting-a-ballot/polling-place-lookup/
Trump keeps saying Democrats made up the word “affordability.” We think he’s trying to distract from the fact that his policies are wreaking havoc on prices. #affordability
In the 5th Congressional District, which includes Nelson County, voters who participate in the Aug. 4 Democratic Primary will be doing the important work of selecting a candidate to run for the U.S. House of Representatives in the Nov. 3 General Election. www.nelsoncounty-va.gov/government/v...
This is how we'll take back our country. Thanks to our friends in Shenandoah County for the inspiration. @shencodems.bsky.social
While Trump spends his time on grotesque building renovations, self-serving voter suppression tactics and bitcoin schemes, Americans are having to make hard decisions at the grocery store. Virginia, and the country, can’t afford legislators who enable the current administration. Vote Democratic.
Sen. Warner has been warning that Trump would interfere with elections. During Monday's free webinar, he'll focus on election security and challenges facing the upcoming midterms and future elections. Register: lp.constantcontactpages.com/ev/reg/h8d9tr8
Today is the last day to register or update your information in order to cast a regular ballot in the Aug. 4 Primary Election. Please share. vote.virginia.gov

When you have a governor who believes in science and affordability. “We are taking real, practical action to address high energy costs for Virginians, protect families from future rate hikes, and meet rising energy demand.” — Gov. Abigail Spanberger. www.governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/new...
Trump tried to hold the bipartisan housing affordability bill hostage. His ploy didn’t work because there weren’t enough votes in Congress to do his bidding. The bill became law without his signature. Wouldn’t it be great if all our representatives on the Hill would always hold him accountable?
Wow, Nelson. You showed up for democracy last night to attend our forum and roundtable discussions with U.S House of Representatives candidates running in the Aug. 4 Democratic Primary. Thank you to Dr. Suzanne Krzyzanowski, Rob Tracinski and a representative of Tom Perriello for participating.
Every legislative action that takes a stand against Trump’s reckless and corrupt presidency is a step in the right direction. Silence is complicity. So, if you don’t already have them, elect Democratic leaders to Congress who aren’t afraid to say, “Not on my watch.” @kaine.senate.gov
The fate of our country could hinge on the 2026 midterms, so here’s the plan: Let’s nominate a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives who will carry us to victory in November. Attend our Candidate Forum on June 24 and learn more about the Democrats seeking the nomination.
A reminder that festivities to celebrate Juneteenth get underway in Nelson County tomorrow afternoon!
This summer, you have plenty of opportunities to vote early in-person at the Nelson County Registrar’s Office before the Aug. 4 primary election. Check the link for times and dates before you go: www.nelsoncounty-va.gov/government/v...
We're going to take back our country one election at a time and, for the 5th District, that means electing a Democrat to the U.S. House of Representatives. The first step is nominating a candidate, so please join us on June 24 and get to know the three Democratic Primary candidates. See you there.
We know Nelson County is one of the places that makes Virginia truly special, and we've seen some of your spectacular photos, so here's your chance to be a part of history. ciosenus.app.box.com/f/b5f2d1e01f...
Celebrate Juneteenth at the Nelson Heritage Center, 1653 Thomas Nelson Highway, Arrington, VA 22922!
This Memorial Day, we remember and honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our country and defend our freedoms.
Since our congressman, John McGuire, has time to stand around waving at cars, let's put his time to better use, like calling and telling him to push back against Trump’s $1.8 billion slush fund. While we’re at it, let's ask if he’s ever going to hold a public town hall. 202-225-4711 or 434-791-2596.
Is this the result we wanted? Certainly not. But does it strengthen our resolve to join Americans across the nation in voting Trump's supporters out of office in November? You bet. See you at the polls.
While the GOP wants to spend $1 billion on a ballroom, Democratic Senators Kaine and Warner took a deep dive into what that much money could actually buy for Virginians who are struggling to make ends meet. Turns out, it's a lot.
Costs are soaring, but Republicans want to take $1 BILLION from Americans’ pockets to build a ballroom. @markwarner.bsky.social and I crunched the numbers—here are some of the many ways that money could be used to help Virginians instead:
