Campaign Websites

As a public service, I'm posting links to the campaign websites for every declared candidate for local office within Loudoun*.

This will be an on-going project.

Websites will be listed alphabetically by candidate's last name within each office.

Categories of offices are also listed alphabetically.

Board of Supervisors
Constitutional Offices
House of Delegates
School Board
State Senate
*I've made a decision that blogs, official government pages, and facebook walls will not count for the purposes of this page. Convince me otherwise, and maybe I'll change my mind about that.

The State Board of Elections has ruled the following about websites:

Each page is accessible via its own link and address. Therefore, each webpage must include the disclaimer.
Quite frankly, I would never have interpreted the law this way, since the law says,
Radio, TV and print media communications must include disclaimers displayed conspicuously. Print media includes billboards, newspaper and magazine ads, mailings, fliers, email and websites. Printed pieces consisting of more than one page need bear the disclaimer only on one page or face. VA. CODE ANN. § 24.2-955.1 (defining “print media”).
However, I'm not in charge. The SBE is.

I will not insist that campaign websites conform with this new ruling to be eligible for inclusion in my Campaign Websites page. From here on, I will list one link per candidate no matter what.

Facebook pages, blogs, or whatever count from here on out.
