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. Â 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?
