“Kerry Donley’s leadership of the City Council was marked by significant accomplishment which expanded our tax base, created jobs and brought us new public facilities. I support his return to the Council, and I feel his leadership will be an asset as we face troubled times and prepare for economic recovery. I urge you to vote for Kerry Donley on January 31st.”

“Kerry proved himself as an excellent Mayor that he has the courage and strength to lead us. He knows how to take charge and get things done.”
“Kerry Donley has been involved in volunteer opportunities in Alexandria for decades. He has volunteered at homeless shelters, the local United Way, the Community Services Board and many others. His time on City Council and as Mayor has demonstrated his commitment to public service. His return to City council is sorely needed as the city faces tough economic times ahead.”
- Vola Lawson, City Manager - 1985-2000
“During my years on Council, during which Kerry was a Council colleague and then Mayor, I saw the even-handed, yet firm leadership he provided. I watched a balanced, yet decisive leader. I observed a good and wise man from and for our community. He provided outstanding leadership in both good times and bad. We all know that we are facing very tough economic times, and I believe Kerry’s return will be a strong, experienced addition to an already very fine Council.”
- Lonnie Rich, City Council Member - 1991-2000
