D. Clay Pugh has suspended his campaign for the Democratic nomination for the Virginia Ninth Congressional District seat in the House of Representatives as of Thursday, March 31st. We are disappointed that he has endorsed Morgan Griffith, whom he previously opposed as ineffective and not a good representative for the District.
Bill Bunch and Derek Kitts are the candidates that will be voted on at the Ninth District Convention on May 21, 2016, in Wytheville. Both of them were present and spoke at the regular meeting of the Ninth District Committee in Radford on April 2nd, and each has made more than one visit to Bristol!
If you have not met them, you can find them on line at the links below. Check their calendars to see where they will be, and get to know the candidates! Also encourage them with a contribution, as both of them are expending resources in order to be out and about in the District to speak with voters.
