Spirit of 76 Fundraiser for HD76 Candidate Clint Jenkins
September 28th, 5:00pm
Home of Maggie and Brad Mellor - address provided upon registration (Vienna, VA)
Catch the Spirit of '76 and turn Virginia Blue with your support of Clinton Jenkins, the Democratic candidate running in the newly redistricted HD-76. Clinton’s district (Suffolk) is ideally positioned to flip blue and unseat his opponent, Chris Jones– the chief architect of Virginia’s racially gerrymandering maps. The newly drawn map has changed the district from 56% Republican to 58% Democratic, a massive 27-point swing favoring Clinton. Clinton, a military veteran, small business owner, and current Chair of the DPVA’s 3rd Congressional District under Congressman Bobby Scott, needs our help to finance his worthy campaign. This campaign is primarily funded by small donors, so your contribution will make a significant impact. This will be a fabulous party with Special Guests and THE ROCKITS band! Sponsored by several grassroots groups working to flip Virginia blue by supporting our candidates across the state!  RSVP here!
