I’m told that Del. Jack Reid, the Republican from Henrico, may well not seek reelection this year. He’s represented the 72nd since 1990. It’s a conservative district, so the seat will go to a Republican, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the seat ended up shifting to the left somewhat. If there’s anybody to the right of Reid thinking about running, I don’t know about it.

I got a letter from Jack yesterday confirming that he is retiring. I must say that he was always a good friend to me. We did not always agree, of course, but he fought for things he believed in (including, let’s recall, a fairly dramatic improvement in air quality standards). I genuinely am going to miss him.
Lynwood Cobb would be to the right of Jack.

Thanks for the info, Bill!
If there’s anyone to the right of Reid, he’d fall off the edge of the earth.
