For U.S. Senate:
Elect Jim Gilmore

Former Gov. Jim Gilmore won the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate on May 31, at the Republican State Convention in Richmond. He is running to succeed Sen. John Warner (R), who is retiring after representing Virginia in the Senate since 1978.

Gilmore won the nomination over State Del. Bob Marshall, and the party is uniting behind the nominee to hold the seat against Democrat ex-Gov. Mark Warner in November. We invite you to get involved with the Gilmore campaign in Northern Virginia this year!
