My choices in the highly contested race in this Democratic primary, which concludes on June 20.
The stakes in this primary election are high, so I am sharing with you opportunities to volunteer for or contribute to the candidates I voted for. I understand you may not share my choices. I share this information nevertheless, because, respectfully, I believe they will best strengthen and expand the American Dream in Arlington and I believe in sharing opportunities to participate in our democracy.
