A New Face for a New, 5th District, State Central Seat

With Robert Hurt's stupendous win, the 5th District gains an additional seat on RPV's State Central Committee.  A number of individuals have come out to express their "candidacy" for the seat; and from what I've seen, this writer is throwing her support behind Dolores Switzer of Bedford County.

Dolores has become recognizable around the 5th district in the past, year and a half as a real worker.  With her grassroots foundation, she built the 2009 Bedford County Republican headquarters into a resounding success, even helping the Bedford County unit to win its award at last year's Advance thanks to her work.  She has since gone on to graduate from this year's class of the Jennifer Byler Institute, become a Bedford County leader for Robert Hurt's campaign, and a member of the 5th District EDO (Election Day Organziation), leading the 5th to a success in covering the majority of polls with workers to stop Perriello's quest for his second term.  In addition, she is the treasurer for the Central Republican Women in the Lynchburg, Campbell, Bedford, and Amherst areas.

Dolores is exactly the type of fresh face that the 5th District needs to represent its Republican voters.  She'll bring a needed, renewed sense of life to the district, as well as the state level.

Good luck to Dolores Switzer!
