George,

I endorse Meredith Richards for the Democratic nomination for the 25th District Senate seat. She has demonstrated extraordinary leadership, knowledge, and judgment in her role on the Charlottesville City Council and on a wide range of issues such as childcare and education, civil liberties and gay rights, a living wage, and local and state transportation. Meredith Richards has the courage and wisdom to speak clearly to issues and to provide effective representation for the 25th District.
