Donley Joins Ticket
Via Michael Lee Pope at the Alexandria Gazette Packet:
Former mayor Kerry Donley won a place on the Democratic
ticket Saturday night during the Alexandria Democratic Committee’s caucus, securing a position along with five incumbent candidates who will be running for reelection in May. Donley and the incumbents will face at least two Republicans in the May 5 general election — businessman Frank Fannon and real-estate agent Phil Cefaratti. Councilman Rob Krupicka received more votes than any other candidate, receiving about twice as many votes as real-estate investor Boyd Walker.
“There were a few voters who wanted to talk about issues like senior tax relief or industrial land use on the West End,” said Donley as he greeted voters at Minnie Howard Ninth Grade Center Saturday afternoon. “But for the most part, people already know who they are going to vote for.”
