Eight Candidates Speak to Bloggers

Eight congressional candidates spoke at the Blogs United conference at Christopher Newport University last Saturday.

The eight come from four different districts -- the First, Second, Third, and Fifth. Here they are, on video, in district numerical order.

From the Second District, there are four potential Republican challengers to incumbent Representative Glenn Nye: Scott Rigell, Ben Loyola, Kenny Golden, and Scott Taylor:







In the Third District, Coby Dillard is seeking the Republican nomination to face incumbent Congressman Bobby Scott (D-VA):

Finally, in the Fifth District, Michael McPadden is one of six or seven potential Republican challengers seeking to face off against incumbent Representative Tom Perriello (R-VA5):
