The Virginia Education Association turned some heads today by endorsing Jason Call, Republican for Delegate against Norfolk’s Delegate Algie Howell. The 90th also includes parts of Chesapeake and Virginia Beach.
Call was justifiably proud of the endorsement, adding “We need to reengage our youth in the American Dream to combat drugs, gangs, and teen pregnancy. We need to emphasize education, not incarceration. We need to offer games, not gangs.”
Jason Call’s website is here.
