separating the VA-10 field
Just wanted to flag this story highlighting the integrity and conviction of Barbara Comstock for being the only candidate in VA-10 to stand against the Democrat-orchestrated government shutdown.
From The Republican Standard: Comstock Stands With VA-10, Democrats Stand With Schumer Shutdown
“Among those working around the clock, Republican Congresswoman Barbara Comstock (VA-10) was the only candidate in her congressional district that stood against the Democrat government shutdown.
“Not a single VA-10 Democrat running against incumbent Comstock decided to put their vicious partisanship aside in an effort to ensure a smooth-running federal system. During every shutdown Comstock has sided with the people it affects most, hard-working Americans and those serving to protect the nation.
“Comstock stood with members of the U.S. military, with federal employees, with those receiving social security checks, and those receiving federal aid when she voted in favor of measures to ensure the government stayed open for business. Last week, she voted with the Virginia Republican delegation to fund the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) while all Democrats in both the House and Senate stood in defiance of American children to execute a political ploy.”

“Alison Friedman stood with Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA), not with VA-10. Dan Helmer decided to stand with Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ), not with the people of VA-10. Lindsey Stover Davis joined her friend Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), not her peers in VA-10. Jennifer Wexton sided with fellow liberal Virginian Congressman Gerry Connolly of the 11th district, not hearing the needs of the citizens of VA-10. Of course, the Democrats running against a proven member of Congress all while liberal sympathizer Don Beyer (VA-8) is worrying about his next vacation instead of fighting for the livelihoods of federal employees and the military…. Comstock put the needs to the people above partisanship, above personal political gain. Constituents of VA-10 have fighter in Congress, one that always stands with them.”
