Another nice endorsement for a candidate, this time by leading Democratic and gay rights activist Charley Conrad for Miles Grant in the 47th House of Delegates race.If we’re going to make progress on marriage rights for all Virginians, we need more bold leaders like Miles Grant,” said Conrad. “Miles had already earned my respect because of his progressive values, record of community service, and active support for Democratic candidates – and now he’s earned my support for his strong stand in support of full marriage rights for gay couples.”Other recent endorsements in the 47th include Patsy Ticer for Adam Parkhomenko, Barbara Favola and Mary Hynes for Patrick Hope. The endorsement race is definitely starting to heat up, with many more Arlington electeds not having weighed in yet. Stay tuned, this should be interesting to watch.
P.S. Before we shut down in December 2008, RK's executive board voted to endorse our friend and fellow netroots activist Miles Grant for this seat.
