NoVa Democrat takes on my delegate, Dave Marsden, by highlighting key votes that Marsden made on some bills. I disagree with NoVa Democrat’s assessment.
1) He introduced HB 1460 which would make local cops immigration officials (I am proud that ALL of Arlington’s delegates had the courage to vote against it).
2) His vote for HB 487 [...]

I’ll look over a couple of districts from the July 15 fundraising reports:
13th District: Sideshow Bob Marshall didn’t get a single person to contribute to him this quarter, just 4 PAC’s totaling $1,500. First came the bankers on June 3, then came the coal PAC on June 10, then came the tobacco PAC on June [...]
