Linda Crandell, a fellow member of the current class of the Sorensen Institute’s Political Leaders Program has announced her candidacy for House of Delegates up in the Northern Neck, in the 99th District. Linda is a Democrat, a Colonial Beach Councilwoman, and is facing at least one challenger for the nomination. As a Sorensen fellow, she’s particularly well-suited to serve in the General Assembly — it demonstrates a commitment to bipartisanship, ethical behavior, and good governance. Of course, the mere fact that she was accepted into the program is a strong endorsement of her leadership abilities. Having gotten to know her, I’m excited about her candidacy, and intend to help her in any way that I can.
Thanks to Bobby for the pointer.
Fantastic. I’m hoping that eventually sorensen grads break away from their respective parties and form their own party. There are so many wonderful grads on both sides of the isle.
Waldo, do you know if she’s been in contact with Emily’s List yet? Cyndi Smalls runs the POP program there for downballot candidates.
You know that anyone you back, I’m excited about. Please convey my best wishes to Linda and let her know that if I can help with staffing, tech advice, recommendations on vendors / printers / consultants, etc., that I would be delighted to help.
