FAIRFAX, VA - Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Chair Phyllis Randall endorsed Sean Perryman’s campaign for Lt. Governor on Tuesday, citing her trust in Perryman’s ability to stick to true progressive values. Loudoun is the fourth largest county in the Commonwealth. The announcement follows the endorsement of additional Loudoun County leaders Zach Cummings of the Leesburg city council and Pastor Michelle Thomas.
“Offering my support for a candidate is not something I take lightly. I don’t need to agree with them on every issue, but I do need to be assured that their election will improve the lives of our most vulnerable populations,” said Chair Randall. “I need to trust that they support access to affordable health care, raising the minimum wage, and supporting environmental policies that will leave a better world for future generations. I need to rely on them to support policies that address racial inequities in criminal justice, housing, employment, and economics. Mostly, I need to trust that when elected they will keep their word. These are the reasons I offer my support for Lt. Governor of Virginia to Sean Perryman and will work to aid in his election.”
“Phyllis Randall is a widely-respected leader in Loudoun county because she takes seriously the task of creating a county where all can prosper,” said Perryman. “The evidence of her success can be seen in every corner of Loudoun, where she has led on the county’s COVID response, economic development, and on racial equity. I’m so proud to have her by my side as we forge ahead in our campaign for a modern, compassionate Virginia.”
The Perryman campaign reported outraising well-established politicians and members of the House of Delegates in the Lt. Governor’s race in 2020. The campaign has also racked up endorsements from over 60 elected officials, faith leaders, and community activists from across Virginia.
Sean Perryman is President Emeritus of the Fairfax County Chapter of the NAACP, a technology public policy advocate, attorney, and former congressional investigator. If elected, he would become one of the youngest Lt. Governors in Virginia history.
