I’m going to start a thread now of my coverage of today’s 7th district congressional GOP nominating convention. The winner today will face @RepSpanberger in November https://twitter.com/jaaavis/status/1284493422607433729
There are 6 candidates vying for the GOP nod today https://ballotpedia.org/Virginia%27s_7th_Congressional_District_election,_2020_(July_18_Republican_convention)
@AmandaChaseVA is walking around with a clique
Andrew Knaggs is talking to people outside of the voting building. The first round of voting is over and they are currently counting. If no one receives a majority in the round, the bottom two candidates will be removed from the ballot and the delegates will vote again
This is outside the Freitas tent
This is inside the Freitas tent
I have word now that @JohnMcGuire4VA has challenged the status of several convention delegates. First round of counting is expected to take a while
Jason Roberge Just endorsed Tina Ramirez. It is not yet clear how many delegates Roberge received but it won’t be many
Former Lt. Governor John Hager is listening to @AndrewKnaggsVA speak as the first round of votes are being counted
They still have not started to count the first round votes yet
The ventilation in between the two Freitas indoor tents. Or is this this the air conditioner? Not sure
Nick Freitas is speaking to supporters now thanking everyone for enduring the heat today. “This is the first day we get to show everyone we are going to take back this seat.”
We are going to get the president a congress that can work with his agenda” says freitas
Freitas said he was expecting Spanberger to be reasonable on impeachment.
