Dear Virginia,
Two events this week - April 8th on-line debates and the April 10th in-person Veterans Rally in Woodbridge. (See details below)
I know how sick you all must be of hearing these candidates tell us how they can win because they have the money to buy your vote or this or that this or that friend in the political establishment likes them. None of that matters.
Winning and what they will actually do is what matters. Buying the nomination with big money is not the same thing as leadership. It is nice and you get a lot of supposed "friends" but is this the type of leadership we need.
Some of these candidates you will notice are afraid of having tough questions asked. Some dont care about earning your vote and plan to just buy it. Join CFV in finding out which are which.
Join us this Thursday for a "Take the gloves off debate." With the candidates. Our forums two weeks ago focused on what makes the candidate believe they can win, but this debate is going to be about why they should win.
Please join us on Facebook, or on YouTube (last months forums available here as well) this Thursday.
April 8th - CFV Candidate Online "Take the gloves off" Debate - Attorney General Candidates (400 to 530 pm)
- LT Governors Candidates (600 to 730 pm)
- Gubernatorial Candidates (800 to 930 pm)
April 10th - CFV Veterans Rally - Electric Palm, Woodbridge VA 6:30pm to TBD (all candidates are invited)
If you like what we are doing please donate. All donations go to getting information out to voters so that we can elect conservatives in November.
DONT WAIT!!!!
Become a delegate today!!!
Delegates are not "bound" in Virginia no matter what the candidates might tell you, you do not have to be a delegate for a specific candidate, so you don't have to have decided yet. But you must register. There is also no limit to the number of voters/delegates for this convention.
1. Anyone can vote (also called "be a delegate") this year.
2. Get your voter ID number here.
3. Fill out the form (from the link above) and take/email it/fill out their online form but get it to your local GOP committee (go here to find out where that is).
4. Do it TODAY because there are deadlines.
The convention sites can also be provided by the local committees once they are all identified and Chasing Freedom - Virginia will be publishing all the locations as well. Watch our website.

| | Chasing Freedom – Virginia is a 501(c)(4) under the United States IRS code. We are an open community organization of Virginia citizens and common cause interest groups. We follow a policy of non-alignment with regard to any specific political party. Our members are dedicated to preserving and promoting our individual rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as envisioned by our nation's founders.
Our Goals
• Serve as a unified voice in Virginia for grassroots activists and organizations.
• Mobilize "the People" of Virginia in the defense of conservative values.
• Be a trusted source of information on civics and Virginia politics.
• Vet, approve, endorse, and support conservative candidates across Virginia.
We believe in the brilliance of our Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the framework contained therein for the preservation and promotion of our social welfare and the common good of all Virginia citizens. With this understanding we plan to passionately reinvigorate civic responsibility and restore "of, by and for the people" to its rightful place in our Republic.
We believe...
• THE CONSTITUTION is the Law of the Land. Our individual rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; as enshrined in the Bill of Rights, serve to limit the government as intended by the Founders.
• RELIGIOUS LIBERTY is a cornerstone of our Constitution and must be protected as an inalienable human right.
• THE 2nd AMENDMENT, serves to protect The People against domestic and foreign oppression and must be protected as an inalienable human right.
• All citizens, in order to realize their fullest potential, are entitled to EQUAL RIGHTS, EQUAL JUSTICE, and EQUAL OPPORTUNITY, not equal outcomes.
• THE FAMILY is the most essential and most empowering organization in our shared human existence.
• ALL LIFE IS PRECIOUS and must be protected.
• THE FREE ENTERPRISE system is the most productive supplier of human needs and economic justice. Fiscal responsibility and budgetary restraint must be exercised by all levels of government.
• PEACE is preserved through a STRONG NATIONAL DEFENSE.
• GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY is essential to maintain trust and faith with The People.
• OUR HISTORY and the associated memoria serve as guideposts in our journey as a Nation, to serve as reminders of our shared sacrifices and as warnings to future generations.
Chasing Freedom – Virginia is a union of coalitions devoted to our shared values.
