Delegate Chris Hurst (D-12) was pulled over in traffic Monday night and notified that his license was suspended. He was pulled over after a Radford deputy saw a woman turning over and messing with campaign signs at the Radford Rec. Center, an election polling precinct. The deputy then saw the woman get in a car. When the deputy did a traffic stop and requested assistance from a Radford police officer, the driver of the car was identified as Hurst. The woman’s name has not been released. The officer took a statement from the deputy and confirmed damage to several political signs.
Radford Police have asked Virginia State Police to take over the investigation. VSP isn’t commenting, saying, “Because your inquiry concerns an ELECTED official, I am not able to comment. VSP can only investigate an elected official at the authorization of the Attorney General. Per their guidance, any inquiry related to any investigation of any elected official...VSP can’t make a comment.”

Hurst has not responded for requests for a comment on this incident, but Tweeted this Tuesday morning. (wonder why? especially on election day you’d think this liberal democrat would want to explain his actions.)
Jason Ballard, running as a Republican for the same seat for which Hurst is running for reelection, issued this statement:
“I am deeply disappointed that Chris Hurst has decided to end his campaign in such a reckless way. His latest misstep is yet another reason why he doesn’t deserve another term as Delegate. I, on the other hand, will remain laser focused on the issues that matter most to the people of the 12th District. I will always strive to set a good and positive example for my children and the fine people of the New River Valley.”

Well, how about that 🤔
No charges have been filed.

Of course not. Democrats are never charged.
Thank you for that!! I always read local WDBJ7 first as it has more for my neighboring county, but the article you linked to is much better.
To think this is the face of the democrat party is, well, not surprising but a very, sad reminder of who they are at heart.
Shocking, I know. This guy is very, pro-abortion/womens’ rights.
Only reason he is where he is today is his dead fiance. She was one killed several years back when a deranged former employee walked up and shot her, the camera man, and woman being interviewed. Sad...but no reason to give him a platform.
👍
I think I remember that incident. Yes that was awful.
The demokkkrat scum are pulling out all the stops. Minions of Satan.
Democrats are simply awful people.
I just heard Virginia polls are turning people away who are not wearing their slave mask. ILLEGAL.
Ballard is a Class Act!
