State Sen. David Marsden is backing Norfolk Councilmember Andria McClellan for the Democratic Party lieutenant governor nomination.
“I’m supporting Andria McClellan for lieutenant governor for three main reasons: her local government experience, business experience and most importantly, her passion for using good policies to improve people’s lives,” said Marsden, D-Alexandria. “Her unique combination of experience and expertise on the big issues facing our Commonwealth make her the person we need as lieutenant governor and the only statewide candidate who brings a Tidewater perspective to the ticket.”
Marsden has represented the 37th Senate District since 2010. He previously served the Fairfax area as a member of the House of Delegates from 2006-2010.
“Sen. Marsden has long worked to find bipartisan solutions that improve Virginia communities and the quality of life of Virginia families,” McClellan said. “As a leader in the Northern Virginia delegation, I know his support will open new doors for my campaign as we build a statewide coalition to elect Virginia’s first female lieutenant governor.”
