NARAL PRO-CHOICE VIRGINIA PAC ANNOUNCES ENDORSEMENTS IN VIRGINIA GENERAL ELECTIONS
Endorsements highlight organization’s dedication to preserving women’s health advocates
in the Virginia General Assembly
(Alexandria, Va) – Tarina Keene, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia, announced that her organization’s political action committee proudly endorsed another group of outstanding pro-choice candidates in Virginia’s 2011 statewide elections.
Keene said the candidates were part of her organization’s plan to protect and elect pro-choice leaders in the state’s General Assembly this fall. NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia and its PAC will marshal its resources to protect pro-choice allies in Richmond, while electing even more pro-choice candidates to the House of Delegates and state Senate. In 2009, 58 percent of NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia-backed candidates won their races.
“I am confident our endorsed pro-choice candidates will continue to stand up to attacks on women’s health and help protect and expand access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare for all Virginia women,” said Keene. “They stand between Virginia women and continued anti-choice attacks on reproductive health.”
NARAL Pro-Choice Virginia PAC is pleased to announce the following endorsed candidates.

The communist one child rule would rake in a fortune! I can see why they support democrats. $$$$$. Dead babies everywhere!
If one did not already know the position of the candidates on the abortion issue, this sure helps. Vote against everyone on this list!
