Team Biden-Harris and Virginia Democrats Energize Voters on July 4th Across the Commonwealth
On July 4th, the Biden-Harris campaign and the Democratic Party of Virginia came together to celebrate Independence Day and reach voters during parades and festivals in each of Virginia’s 11 congressional districts.

Supporter: “[…] I’m for, going, sticking with the guy that I came to the party with. As a result, I’m holding fast.”
