My name is Debra Gardner, and I am running for the Virginia House of Delegates to flip my district blue this November!
I am fighting for a better world for my daughter, and everyone else's children as well. Join me.
The votes have been counted, and it was not the outcome we were hoping for. I am proud of the campaign that we ran in the 27th District. This was not the beginning for me, and it will not be the end.
🗳️ TODAY IS THE DAY, VIRGINIA🗳️
Polls are open until 7pm. Don't forget to remind your friends, family, and neighbors to get out and vote today.
Thank you @PamNorthamVA for coming out and getting us FIRED UP to get out the vote today! I am proud to stand with her in the fight to bring more affordable and accessible early childhood education to our hardworking families and parents.
Thank you to these warriors for coming out and supporting me this morning! 4 days to GOTV folks! I'm fired up.
Chesterfield is fired up and ready to elect @Debra4Delegate to the House of Delegates! Excited to be supporting her alongside Majority Leader @C_Herring and Mike Town from @LCVoters.
This Nation article hits the nail on the head. Now more than ever we need leaders we can actually trust to follow the science and keep us safe, not politicians like Roxann Robinson who spread misinformation about COVID. thenation.com/article/politi…
Thank you to all who joined us for our parade to the polls this afternoon! ❤️❤️ The first day of Sunday voting in Chesterfield was a SUCCESS.
🚨Endorsement Alert🚨
I am HONORED to receive the endorsement of President
@BarackObama! The momentum is with us. Let's finally flip this seat.
Huge news from Virginia! President @BarackObama is throwing his support behind 21 Virginia House candidates running in the most competitive districts. These are the races we need to win in order to #KeepVABlue.
Thank you to my fellow @VCU alum @BorisKodjoe for making this video & supporting my campaign to flip the 27th! I am a big fan.
.@BorisKodjoe shares fellow @VCU alum Debra Gardner's recipe for the reforms she'll be serving up in VA's 27th if she's elected to the House of Delegates.
So vote early for @Debra4Delegate through 10/30 or on Nov 2nd! #VoteVirginia
👀
317 votes decided this delegate race in 2017 and 2019 combined. Can the Democrats finally flip it? virginiascope.com/317-votes-…
🚨BIG Endorsement Alert🚨
Humbled to recieve the endorsement of President @JoeBiden today. He knows we must win to protect the progress we have made. On to November!
Building back better starts in the states. Since flipping the legislature in 2019, Virginia Democrats have been a model of progress—including helping us vaccinate folks to beat the pandemic. To keep our progress, we must elect @TerryMcAuliffe and Democrats up and down the ballot.

Thank you to our hosts Erin and Patty for another great Meet and Greet! It was wonderful to meet so many new neighbors and friends and discuss the issues that matter the most to them.
