OCCOQUAN, Va. — It’s been said that the best competitions are ones that you know you’re going to win, and this can be said for Occoquan Mayor Earnie Porta
Porta, a Democrat, will seek his third, two-year consecutive term, as he runs for reelection – unopposed — this year.
Occoquan residents will go to the polls Tuesday, May 1 at Town Hall, at 314 Mill Street. Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.
While Mayor Porta has a seemingly election season ahead of him, he commented, “I don’t take anything for granted, though, so I will be out there campaigning for votes. I am hoping we will see solid voter turnout for the election, and I would very much like to see all the council members re-elected as well.”
Residents are encouraged to register to vote before the end of April in order to cast ballots in the upcoming town mayoral and council elections.
