Joe for Virginia Participating in First Announced Debate on October 15th
Joe for Virginia is happy to have an opportunity to debate the other candidates and speak to constituents of the 7th District.

Powhatan, Virginia: The Joe for Virginia campaign and Joe Walton agreed to participate in the first announced debate for the 7th District to be held on October 15th at 6:30 PM at Germanna Community College.  The debate facilitator is the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce.

Representative Brat and Abigail Spanberger have agreed to this debate as well, so Joe will be able to directly debate their candidacies about the issues facing the 7th District and our country.

“I am grateful for the opportunity to meet the members of the Culpeper Chamber of Commerce and the constituents in Culpeper, Virginia,” Joe stated enthusiastically, and added, “discussing issues openly and in any format is an important part of being a capable, effective, and accountable elected representative.” 

Joe has agreed to the advertised, current terms of the debate and is unequivocally open to debate and discuss issues in any format and on any terms.  As the final details of this debate are worked out and for any future debate plans, Joe is committed to participating.

Joe has a proven record as an accountable representative from when he was the Chair of the County of Powhatan Board of Supervisors and will do so again in Congress for the 7th District and Virginia.

The Culpeper Chamber of Commerce is in the process of revising their collateral and advertising for the debate to add our campaign and Joe’s candidacy.  We are grateful for their interest in the election and a robust debate of the issues and the candidates who seek to represent the 7th District of Virginia in the U.S. House of Representatives.

We look forward to seeing our supporters there and making new friends and supporters from the audience to the debate.  Joe is ready to debate any candidate about any issue as the election unfolds so please stay tuned for more opportunities to see and hear from Joe Walton and his campaign.
