Republican Party of Virginia Chairman Jack Wilson released to following statement today in response to Senate Majority Leader Tommy Norment:
“Over the last two days, I have detailed my concerns with the now cancelled convention. The Party Plan is clear, the 97th Legislative District Committee decides the election process in its boundaries. On Wednesday night, the 97th LDC, recognizing the significant concerns with the convention, voted with 76% of the vote to cancel the convention and choose a canvass. RPV has provided video of the meeting and the results are abundantly clear. Nothing in Senator Norment’s release addresses or changes these facts.”
