McWaters endorsed by Stolle; Wilson endorsed by city leaders
By JR Hoeft | Friday, November 20th, 2009 | PoliticsJeff McWaters has received the endorsement of Virginia Beach Sheriff-elect and soon-to-be former State Sen. Ken Stolle, who is vacating the seat. In an email today to supporters, Stolle writes:
“In this election there are two Republicans vying for the seat, both have served the community of Virginia Beach for many years and both are good people. For me the choice is clear. Jeff McWaters is the best candidate for the job.
“Jeff has proven his leadership in business and has a record of creating jobs, both nationally and right here in Virginia Beach. The company Jeff started was based on conservative Republican principles of cutting costs and saving states and taxpayers money, while promoting efficiency in government. This is exactly the type of person we need representing us in Richmond.”
But Rosemary Wilson, not too be dissuaded, came out with her own list of endorsements which includes almost all the Republicans in city elected office. Wilson was endorsed today by:
- The Honorable Harvey Bryant, Commonwealth’s Attorney, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable John Atkinson, Treasurer, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Tina Sinnen, Clerk of the Court, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Leo Wardrup, former member of the Virginia House of Delegates
- The Honorable Louis Jones, Vice-Mayor, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Bob Dyer, Councilmember, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Jim Wood, Councilmember, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable John Uhrin, Councilmember, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Glenn Davis, Councilmember, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Harry Diezel, Councilmember, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Dan Edwards, School Board Chair, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Rita Sweet Bellitto, School Board Vice-Chair, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable William Brunke, School Board Member, City of Virginia Beach
- The Honorable Patrick Salyer, School Board Member, City of Virginia Beach
One notable exception is Mayor Will Sessoms who has endorsed McWaters.

I the guess the best way to ascertain as to why who endorses who is who financed who’s campaign. In the case of McWater’s it reminds of the end of the movie “The Fall of the Roman Empire”. The remaining Generals and Senators were biding Dinars for the Cesearship of Rome. Look at VPAP and there are his endorsements. While you are there, check out Scott Rigell too.
Exactly…. nothing like a Ken Stolle endorsement. If that doesn’t clearly say he’s a RINO then nothing ever will.
He created a company based on Republican values??? His company denied benefits to pregnant women, all the while providing funds for abortions. This is not biased retoric, but the facts. Anyone can fond the public record which back up my claims.
