VSSA Supported Candidates

Tomorrow is election day and your vote is very important if we are to maintain our pro-gun majorities in the House of Delegates and the State Senate - but especially the State Senate as there is a 50/50 chance that chamber may change party control. If that happens, every important committee chairmanship will flip to anti-gun northern Virginia State Senators. This includes the Senate Courts of Justice - the committee that most all gun related legislation is assigned.

The following is a list of districts that have contested races. VSSA supports the candidate listed in these important contested races and we urge all gun owners to vote for these candidates if you live in one of the House of Delegates or State Senate Districts listed below.
