Press Release
Issues: Elections
With a planned visit to Charlottesville on Friday by President Barack Obama, Morgan Griffith, the Republican candidate for the Ninth Congressional seat, is encouraging him to visit southwest Virginia while he is in the state.
"Obama says he loves Rick Boucher," says Griffith. "And Congressman Rick Boucher has been a big supporter of his from the start, so he should come to the Ninth and campaign for him."
Griffith points to the fact Obama's remarks were made shortly after he was elected to office during a stop in Bristol.
The President made two appearances in the Ninth District in the 2008 campaign.
