Krystal Ball wins nomination
By JR Hoeft | Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 | PoliticsKrystal Ball has the necessary 101 delegates to win the Democratic nomination in the 1st District. From a Ball release:
With contests this evening in Spotsylvania, Westmoreland, and Williamsburg, Democratic candidate for Congress Krystal Ball has secured the 101 Delegates needed for the First Ballot at the Nominating Convention on May 8, 2010 in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
“I am extremely grateful to voters all over the First District of Virginia for giving me the opportunity to fight for them. We surprised a lot of people with this victory and we are going to bring that same energy and focus to take on the Republican nominee in the fall,” said Ball.
Scott Robinson, her opponent, dropped out of the race last week. She will now face incumbent Rep. Rob Wittman (R) in the general election in November.
