The race for the Republican nomination has whittled down to three.

The former Biden administration Department of Labor administrator and Minnesota Department of Commerce Commissioner is the latest appointee to the incoming Governor’s cabinet.

Fred Missel and Sally Duncan are set to join the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors.

The Governor-elect announced the appointments of Del. Mark D. Sickles as Secretary of Finance and Traci J. Deshazor as Secretary of Administration.

Spanberger said she looks “forward to having the backs of commonsense candidates who listen, lead, and want to actually get things done — not grandstand.”

The last Democrat to represent the 5th District is hoping to apply lessons he learned in his successful 2008 campaign.

Youngkin says his focus is Virginia.

In an exclusive interview, Albemarle County Board of Supervisors member and 5th District candidate Mike Pruitt said, “I’m in this fight and I’m going to stay in this fight.”

Perriello, the last Democrat to win the 5th District, announced his intention to run for the seat he held from 2008-2010 earlier this week.

Calling the current political situation “an all-hands on deck moment,” former Virginia Congressman Tom Perriello announced his comeback candidacy in the 5th district on Tuesday morning.
