This is Jeff Person, and I was just elected Chair of the Falls Church City Democratic Committee (FCCDC). I have been working in Democratic politics for the better part of 20 years.
The first campaign I ever volunteered on was for Howard Dean in 2003, right here in our Little City of Falls Church. I learned at a very young age what it takes to win elected office. Fast forward 21 years, I am now a political campaign consultant at my own political consulting shop and an executive director of Able Dems PAC, whose mission is to elect Democrats with disabilities to office.
I ran to be Chair of FCCDC at this perilous time for our country because I felt like so much is at stake in 2024. This will be the year that will decide whether our country will remain a democracy.
The primary on March 5, Super Tuesday, is when Virginia voters will choose their party nominees. President Joe Biden is running for reelection, with two opponents, for the Democratic nomination.
Primaries are always a prelude to the general election. This year is no different.
By casting your vote, you contribute to the fight against MAGA extremism and a chance to stop the chaos of former President Donald Trump who is running for President (again) with 91 felony charges, and the horrors that plagued our country when he was President.
We have a chance this year to re-elect President Joe Biden and build on the progress of his administration over the last 4 years. And, President Joe Biden has done a lot of good while in the Oval Office. From rebuilding and promoting policies that put America back on track after Covid-19 to fighting for reproductive freedom. There is a huge choice this November. But first, we need to get through the primary.
It all starts now. Early voting is underway at City Hall until Saturday March 2. On primary day March 5, polls are open 6:00 a.m. — 7:00 p.m.
If you like what President Biden has been doing, come get involved with our committee! For more information or to sign up to volunteer, visit the FCCDC website at fallschurchdems.org.
We absolutely need you to make your voice heard this year. The future of our country is at stake.
