NRCC Statement on Democrat Primary Filing Deadline

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) released the following statement on the Missy Cotter Smasal and Jake Denton primary for the VA-02 Democrat nomination:

“While Smasal and Denton fight it out, leaving the winner politically bruised and unpalatable in a general election, Congresswoman Jen Kiggans is delivering bipartisan results for Hampton Roads. The congresswoman is a fighter who delivers for hardworking Virginia families.” — NRCC Spokeswoman Delanie Bomar

Background:

• Congresswoman Kiggans has introduced bipartisan legislation to advocate for veterans’ mental health and better pay for nurses, and she has helped deliver more than $13 million for projects in Hampton Roads.
