The Republican Liberty Caucus of Virginia has endorsed Michael McPadden’s campaign for Congress in District 5.
The district is vast, conservative, and rural and is currently represented by Thomas Perriello (D). Mr. McPadden is locked in an 8-way primary which will end when Republican primary voters decide who to nominate to face Perriello in November.
Michael McPadden is a leader, a military veteran, and a father. He has been married for 30 years and has a distinguished career. At his website, McPadden explains, “Our campaign has a few core principles that we will never compromise on … Our vision is liberty; Our philosophy is the Declaration of Independence; and our model for government is the Constitution.”
McPadden’s issues page explains that he supports individual liberty, limited government, sound money, and the rule of law. How refreshing!
Former Rep. Virgil Goode, a longtime RLC favorite, would be proud of a candidate like Michael McPadden. The Virginia RLC is, too, so we’re supporting his bid to win the June 8 primary.

Our internal polling shows that McPadden has taken the lead in the Fifth District. We are having a lot of fun watching this one.
Robert Hurt has dropped to number three from number one and undecided has stayed at number two.
