On behalf of RPV and our 126 local Republican units, I also express our appreciation to Chairman Jack Wilson for his devoted service in multiple leadership positions at the unit, district, state, and national levels. I am especially grateful to those who offered themselves as candidates and congratulate those who were today elected to positions of senior leadership in our party. With party elections behind us, we now turn our full energies to re-electing President Trump, electing Daniel Gade to the U.S. Senate, and electing 11 great Republicans to the U.S. House. We are at a critical crossroads in the life of our Commonwealth and country, and it is imperative that Virginia Republicans elect and send these outstanding leaders to Washington next January.”
