Chris Graham

A second hat is in the ring for the Republican Party nomination in the 20th District.
Augusta County Republican David Karaffa has entered the race for the party nod. Karaffa joins Staunton City Councilman Dickie Bell in the field that could grow larger by the Monday, July 27, party forum where the GOP will decide on a replacement for Chris Saxman on the ticket.

Karaffa is a cardiac nurse at Augusta Health in Fishersville, according to a news release sent out today. He lives on Sherwood Drive in Waynesboro with his wife, Katherine, and their two children, Grace and Hope.
