Labor Taking No Chances in VA Election

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

With some polls showing a dead heat in the governor’s race next Tuesday, labor is mounting a massive door-knocking effort tomorrow across Northern Virginia. Starting at 9a, NoVA’s Labor-to-Labor Precinct Walks will occur in Annandale, Fredericksburg and Winchester (click here for addresses). "Every vote matters to elect Terry McAuliffe Governor and we also have several House Delegate candidates who have a good chance of winning and we want to help them over the line!" says NoVA Labor president Dan Duncan. “In Annandale, we will have Stacey Kincaid, union member and candidate for Sheriff of Fairfax County and also Charles Showalter, host of the Union Edge radio show joining us to kick off the walk,” says Duncan. Pastries, coffee and juice will be available as usual, and as a special treat, Duncan promises, "our own union Suzy Q's BBQ is providing lunch: ribs, pulled pork and chicken.  Fantastic food; join us!" If you are closer to Winchester or Fredericksburg, “please join them for a morning of union fellowship and fun,” urges Metro Council President Jos Williams, who will be hitting the doors on Saturday. photo courtesy Virginia AFL-CIO
