So what really set off the Campbell County GOP battle?

The removal of John Berkley from the 5th District GOP Chair has cast a spotlight back on Campbell County’s slating incident last year. In little time, Berkely’s defenders and critics were lighting up the blogosphere.

I began to notice, however, that the battle within Campbell preceded the 2014 slating. In fact, it seemed to reach its first crest in 2013, when three Supervisors switched their affiliation from Republican to “Independent Conservatives of Campbell County,” after a falling out with the local GOP leadership (Brookneal Union-Star). It was that GOP leadership that was slated away last year, and was rescued by the RPV organization. In fact, one of those Supervisors took part in a lawsuit to reinstate the slate, according to the Lynchburg News and Advance, which also referenced a possible reason why this all happened.

Last year, incumbent supervisors Falwell and Hugh Pendleton — who both supported a tax increase in 2012 — switched from Republican to independent candidacies with endorsements from the ICCC.

Both ultimately lost to Republican nominees Michael Rousseau and Eric Zehr, who ran on small government, anti-tax platforms.

Curious, I took a look at the 2012 tax increase. It was a doozy: property taxes up 15%, car taxes up 15%, even some BPOL rates risen, and a proposed 4% meals tax. The last of these was rejected by a better than 3-2 margin…which should have made much more of an impression to the tax-hiking supervisors than anything the local Republican committee had in mind. The following year, the aforementioned three Supervisors ran on their tax hike – and as previously noted, two of them were bounced.

Since then, we’ve seen a lot of bandwith used about “electability,” “principle,” “establishment,” “extremists,” and so on. Layers have been added, personalities injected, and lawsuits filed. Let us not forget, however, that one side of this argument is based on defending tax-hikers; the other is not.
