On May 2nd Loudoun Repbulicanrs will hold a convention to choose their candidate for sheriff, either the incumbent Mike Chapman or his challenger retired deputy Eric Noble. Delegates from the Ashburn district will be choosing between their current supervisor, Ralph Buona and his challenger, Joe Scalione.[read_more]
Last night the number of certified convention delegates was released:
1534 initial filing forms
33 duplicates
76 not registered to vote in Loudoun
1415 certified delegates
This seems like a large number of delegates when only two nominations are contested.
Let the fun begin!

I am disgusted with Ralph and the others for hiring Leo Rogers (domestic violence arrest) and for shrugging off the arrest of Shawn Williams. I suppose this is what, in part, boiled down to the war on women and any supervisor turning a blind eye is no friend to women in Loudoun County. They should be ashamed of themselves.
I thought the same thing, I didn’t expect so many delegates for a race that only has 1 contested district and the sheriffs race. You’d think you’d only get a handful of folks for that level of competition. Perhaps it is a good indication of just how charged up Loudoun Republicans continue to be?
