Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia Endorses Steve Hunt for State Senate
Today, the Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia endorsed Steve Hunt in the 37th State Senate race. Hunt is definitely the best candidate for this seat, which was held by Ken Cuccinelli, and includes Centreville, parts of Burke, and parts of Fairfax. Hunt definitely adheres to the core principles of standing strong for individual liberty, free enterprise, and limited government. Tomorrow from 6-10 p.m. at Centreville High School, I strongly encourage you to vote for a candidate, who is principled and will fight for these core principles. Steve Hunt will make a fabulous State Senator.

Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia Elects New Board of Directors
Yesterday, the Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia met to re-charter the state affiliate and to elect a new Board of Directors at The Hard Shell in Richmond. The affiliate was originally chartered at the RPV Advance in 2007. The members elected Matthew Gagnon as Chair, Steven Latimer as Vice Chair, Cliff Dunn as Treasurer, and I was elected as Secretary. In addition, three at-large members were also elected to the Board of Directors. The at-large members are Rick Sincere, Leonard Harris, and Matthew DeLeon.
Additionally, the RLC-Virginia Chapter had a booth at the Convention, where delegates could take the World’s Smallest Political Quiz. Many of those who took the quiz scored in the libertarian category, and this booth definitely allowed the Republicans in attendance to learn more about the RLC. Special thanks goes out to Lisa Miller, who sponsored the booth.
The Republican Liberty Caucus was founded in 1991 to promote individual liberty, limited government, and free enterprise within the Republican Party by promoting these ideals among Party officials and other organizations, identifying and supporting candidates who are sympathetic to these ideals, and promoting Caucus membership with those in the party and elected officials.
Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia Endorses Ken Cuccinelli
Today, the Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia endorsed Ken Cuccinelli for Attorney General for his record and commitment to reduce the size of government, as well as fighting to defend our personal liberties.
RLC-Virginia Chairman Bert Mueller said in a statement that,
“Small government and personal liberty advocates have been increasingly frustrated with the Republican Party, contributing to the Party’s weakening presence in the Commonwealth. Ken Cuccinelli is a breath of fresh air for the cause of liberty and personal responsibility.”
“In the lead up to what promises to be a spirited and competitive Virginia GOP convention in Richmond next month — and with the 2005 Attorney General race being decided by just a few hundred votes — grassroots activists who favor Constitutionally limited government are poised to advance our cause and intend to make a difference in Virginia’s Attorney General race.”
This is good news and a great endorsement for Cuccinelli, as the RLC-Virginia is a strong network of volunteer grassroots activists dedicated to the principles of liberty, limited government, and free enterprise within the Republican party.
