Woodbridge, Va. — The Virginia GOP’s plan to make Primary voters sign a party loyalty oath has drawn the ire of not only the governor, but a local politician.

Del. Richard Anderson denounced the loyalty oath plan approved in December by the Virginia Republican Party that would require voters to sign a form in order to vote in the March 6 GOP Primary Election stating they would remain loyal to the party.


Stafford, Va. –– Stafford County has a new Board of Supervisors, led by Chairman Susan Stimpson and Vice Chairman Cord Sterling.

Republicans Stimpson and Sterling, who represent the Falmouth and Rockhill Districts, respectively, were appointed to their new positions by their peers on the Board Tuesday night.


In Prince William County, local elected politicians have access to a discretionary fund account, which is left over money – allotted by taxpayers – after all of the expenses of running a district office have been paid for.

It’s the only jurisdiction in Northern Virginia that allows such a fund, and The Washington Post takes a look at how some of the discretionary money is being spent, and who says they don’t feel comfortable donating to, of all things, charitable causes.


Four people have tossed their name into the hat to be appointed supervisor, replacing Del. -Elect Mark Dudenhefer (R—Stafford, Woodbridge) who had served on the Board since 2006 and as Chairman since 2010.

The sitting Board is expected this month to appoint a temporary replacement for Dudenhefer, who was elected to the House of Delegates in November. The General Assembly convenes Jan. 11.


Woodbridge, Va. – He’s moving from the Stafford County Board of Supervisors to serve at the House of Delegates in Richmond, but he also has his eye on who will be elected president in 2012.

Del.- Elect Mark Dudenhefer (R-Stafford, Woodbridge) will work on a team of politicians in Virignia to help Mitt Romney win the state, and ultimately the White House.


Stafford, VA – At an investiture ceremony held last night in the Board Chambers at the Stafford County Administration Center, newly-elected and reelected supervisors, constitutional officers and School Board members were installed in their offices.
