I think we need a coordinated effort in the Farm Team to assist Jody’s campaign. I hear tremendous things about her from top democratic leaders. Interestingly I hadn’t heard about Jody until I went to the Farm Team meeting. So clearly, the Farm Team is working in getting the word out about women candidates. Now, we need to find a way to help Jody while still helping the Gubernatorial candidates we’re all supporting.

Hi Everyone,
Jody Wagner came to Fauquier County on Saturday, April 11. Unfortunately we lost the majority of our crowd to a rainstorm. Thus, the Main Street side walk sale in Warrenton didn’t happen.
Nonetheless, Jody was hit among the members of the Fauquier County Democratic Committee who ventured out in the rain to Regina’s Coffee Shop. I thnk we have enough good dems to give her the push she will need in Fauquier.
Jody will be a long overdue voice for us In Richmond. Let’s get behind her and PUSH, PUSH, PUSH. We can do this!
So, I need some help from Rappahanock, Warren, and Culpeper women dems to make this happen in June and again in November. I can be reached at jturnerdcc@verizon.net
GO JODY! We Love you in Fauquier. Much work to do tomorrow.
