As Virginians focus on health, family and financial concerns due to the coronavirus, it might be easy to forget the Republican Primary on Tuesday, June 23. The only race on the ballot is to select our Republican nominee – ​Alissa Baldwin​, ​Daniel Gade or ​Tom Speciale – who will challenge and defeat Democrat Senator Mark Warner in November.

Virginia has open primaries, which means any registered voter may vote in the Republican primary. It is imperative that Republican voters turn out and not allow Democrats to choose our candidate for us!

On May 2, the Fairfax GOP hosted a forum with all three Republican U.S. Senate candidates, which provided valuable insight into their positions and priorities. If you missed it, you can still watch online.
