Tuesday's election: An Important Vote
Tomorrow, Jan 21, a special election will be held to fill the State Senate seat formerly held by Mark Herring. As is all too common these days, a lot of misinformation has been spread and scare tactics employed in the days leading up to the election. Don't believe the hype!
A prime target has been Medicaid expansion. Contrary to what you may have heard, Medicaid expansion will: provide health care for at least 40,000 additional state residents, create at least 30,000 new jobs, and save Virginia millions of dollars.
The thing that should frighten us is the possibility of Virginia descending into partisan paralysis the way the Federal Government did. Jennifer Wexton is troubled by extreme social agendas, and will fight to solve the problems affecting our daily lives. She will work with both parties to improve our transportation systems, maintain the excellence of our educational system, and ensure that health care is affordable and accessible. I urge you to go to the polls tomorrow and vote for Jennifer Wexton!
