Another #primary #election quirk that affects me. Gerry Connolly, representative for the 11th district in Virginia, passed rather suddenly recently. The governor has announced a special election for September 9. Suddenly both parties have to pick their candidate. Democrats are having a “firehouse caucus” next week because like 5 different people are interested in being the candidate in September.
People are asking about where and when to vote and I didn’t know. It’s organised by the party not the county.
