NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia has announced that all three contenders for the opportunity to run as the Democratic candidate for the 29th Virginia Senate seat are 100% pro-choice.
That is good news. Those nasty TRAP laws that keep popping up (Remember Ken Cuccinelli’s diabolical building code intrusions?) came into being because of a vote from the current senator from the 29th. Virginia Democrats want to make sure those ridiculous parking lot rules aren’t used to stomp out reproductive rights for the women of Virginia.
Having three well-qualified candidates presents another problem. I have had a very difficult time deciding who gets my vote on June 9. All 3 candidates are strong. All have worked hard for my vote. The real question becomes which candidate has the best chance of beating Republican challenger Hal Parrish who has lost the pro-choice votes in the 29th by casting a tie-breaker vote for very restrictive zoning rules within the City of Manasssas. His vote would restrict future reproductive care within the City of Manassas.
