Saturday: First Straw Poll for 8th Congressional Seat, Tribute to Congressman Moran
http://greateralexandria.patch.com/groups/elections/p/saturday-first-straw-poll-for-8th-congressional-seat-tribute-to-congressman-moran-greateralexandria
Mt. Vernon Democrats will hold the first straw poll for the 8th Congressional District Democratic nomination and honor Congressman Jim Moran, who is retiring from that seat, at its sixth annual Mardi Gras celebration.
The event is set for Saturday from 8–11 p.m., at Don Beyer Volvo, 7416 Richmond Highway, Alexandria, VA 22306. (Stating the obvious: Yes, Don Beyer is one of the candidates.)
The Democratic primary election date is June 10. The Republican nominee for the April 26 at Bishop O’Connell High School in Arlington.
The 11 candidates who have announced so far have been invited to speak for two minutes each. Anyone with a ticket can vote. Votes will be counted by a straw poll committee of Mount Vernon District Democratic Committee (MVDDC) members and the winner announced at the event.
MVDDC Mardi Gras straw polls correctly predicted the winners of Democratic primaries the last two years. The 11 primary candidates are:
•Don Beyer, former ambassador
•Lavern Chatham, community organizer and former president of the Northern Virginia Urban League
•Adam Ebbin, state senator
•Bill Euille, mayor of Alexandria
•Patrick Hope, delegate
•Derek Hyra, associate professor, Virginia Tech
•Mark Levine, talk show host
•Alfonso Lopez, delegate
•Charniele Herring, delegate
•Bruce Shuttleworth, activist
•Mark Sickles, delegate
All have confirmed attendance except Shuttleworth, who had a previous commitment. At the event, MVDDC will honor Moran for his years of service in Congress.
The Mardi Gras party is the major annual fundraising event for the MVDDC. All funds are used to help elect Democrats. Last year more than 300 attended the event. Tickets are available at www.mvdemocrats.com.

The only person Jim Moran ever served was himself. And he served himself a lot, the drunken, wife-beating, racist fool!

Someone should ask the fat drunken Mick why he signed ObamaCare without reading it.

Why isn't Jim Moron's son Patrick running for Congress?
Oh, that's right, he is a lying cheat and a fraud who was caught on tape giving advice on how to fraudulently register to vote with fake identities.
Like father, like son. Or did i mean, like scum...
