Manassas & Manassas Park Cities Democratic Committee

I couldn’t help but notice yesterday that Hal’s posse has been out blanketing Manassas with yard signs and large campaign signs.  Using the color blue (Democratic color), the signs, like his website, fail to mention that he is a hard right Republican or a Republican at all.  Mayor Tie-Breaker has demonstrated that he is a puppet of the extreme local GOP by ignoring the residents of Georgetown South who do…

August 21 at 5:20 PM E.J. Dionne Jr.’s Aug. 20 op-ed column, “No retreat on voting rights,” could not be more applicable than in Virginia. The 1902…

Watching the current GOP Presidential hopefuls, I can’t help but be reminded of an old 1994 Seinfeld episode “The Opposite.”  In that episode, everything goes bad for Elaine, while George soars with success.  Jerry just comes out even.  Not to disparage any particular candidate (well maybe), but when George just says anything that comes into his head, he wins.  This reminds me of the Trump phenomena.  He can blurt our…

Terry McAuliffe that his plan to reappoint the Virginia Supreme Court justice at the center of a toxic political showdown could subject her rulings to legal challenge.

Hello Folks. This is my first post but on a hopefully regular basis I will be posting information on behalf of the Manassas and Manassas Park Democratic Committee that is relevant to the citizens of Manassas and Manassas Park.  The posts might include event notices, articles or even musings.  For example, next Monday night, August 24, 2015 at 6:30 p.m., the Democratic candidate for Virginia’s 29th District, Jeremy McPike, will…
