In 2018, I came closest to beating my GOP opponent since 1990 with 10pt, @politico last year rerated the 1stCD of VA from Strong to Likely GOP. All done with no help from State or Federal party help. All done grassroots, mostly done within state with no corporate PAC $$. Cont.

My biggest concern was to do my best to help us find a safe path through this crisis. I put a focus on keeping my family safe while seeking resources for members of the community in need. I will not stop doing this because we all need the help and we can work together.

Everyone we were able to help, from a woman in need of her medication to an older couple in need of toilet paper. Whether your need is seemingly simple or very complex, I am here to find you help.
Attention Northumberland County! have been getting reports that there may be problems with curbside voting in the Democratic Primary. Cont.
While I have heard from the county that curbside voting is now available, there have been reports that paper ballots have previously not been available, requiring voters to go inside to use the touchscreens.

If you are intending on voting in the Democratic Primary in Northumberland County, please make sure to bring masks and any other safety equipment you need for being in an indoor space.

We had great weather here in the 1st District and I'm truly hoping all the dads enjoyed it. No matter how you became a father, you have a hard job, being a dad.
