First to File

Yesterday in Richmond, Terry was the first candidate to submit petitions to run for governor. Arriving before any other candidate at noon, the earliest time to submit petitions, Terry once again showed the grassroots organization and powerful support behind his campaign.

After months of building the largest grassroots campaign in Virginia gubernatorial history, Terry submitted 17,243 signatures, well over the 10,000 needed to qualify. Terry's field organizers recruited volunteers to gather signatures and lay the groundwork for a successful field operation. With a little more than two months to go before primary election day, we look forward to continuing a strong Democratic campaign with help from volunteers and supporters like you.
