Washington Post: “The last time former Virginia delegates Jennifer Carroll Foy and Hala S. Ayala campaigned, both were chasing history before each ultimately fell short.”
“Carroll Foy sought unsuccessfully in 2021 to become the first African American woman to be elected governor of any state. Ayala — who identifies as Afro-Latina, Lebanese and Irish — aimed to be the first woman of color to hold a statewide office in Virginia during her unsuccessful run for lieutenant governor that same year. In Virginia, candidates for governor and lieutenant governor run separately, not on a traditional two-person ticket.”

Mitchell already works in the treasurer’s office as a chief deputy to outgoing treasurer Laura Rudy, who chose not to run for re-election after serving since 2008. Rudy endorsed Mitchell when she announced her retirement in December 2022.

I am writing to encourage my friends and neighbors in Prince William County residents to elect Jeanine Lawson for Chair of the Board of Supervisors.
I was fortunate to serve with Jeanine on the Board of Supervisors when our terms overlapped from late 2014 to early 2016. During our brief service together, I was able to observe Jeanine’s leadership firsthand. I was always impressed with her preparation and passion for the citizens of our county.
Makya Little for Delegate: “On Monday, June 19, 2023—also known as Juneteenth—Little’s campaign will host their final pre-primary fundraiser featuring a performance by DeBarge. Working to create opportunities for community members, the campaign has also selected two local bands—TurnUpDeAnte & Co. and Izis la Enderma de la Salsa—to open for DeBarge at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in Woodbridge that evening.”
“Eldra “El” Patrick DeBarge—an American singer, songwriter, and musician—was the focal point and primary lead singer of the family group DeBarge [during the 19880s]. Popular songs led by El DeBarge include “Stay with Me,” “All This Love,” and “Rhythm of the Night.”
Insidenova: “Prince William County will be the center of one of the most-watched primary races in this year’s General Assembly elections, as two incumbents seek the Democratic nomination in the 29th State Senate District.”
“Voting began May 5 in the race between Sen. Jeremy McPike, who currently holds the seat, and Del. Elizabeth Guzman, D-31st. Redistricting maps approved in late 2021 moved Guzman into a House district with Del. Luke Torian, so she decided to run for Senate instead.”
