Contact:  Jim Hock, President  

Arlington, VA - The Northern Virginia Democratic Business Council (NVDBC) today congratulated Creigh Deeds, Jody Wagner and the Northern Virginia Democratic Delegate candidates, Mark Keam, Kaye Kory and Patrick Hope on their 2009 Democratic Primary victories.

"These candidates embody the hope of continued dynamic leadership for our great Commonwealth," said Jim Hock, President of the Northern Virginia Democratic Business Council.  "They offer common-sense solutions to our state's most pressing issues- the economy, healthcare, education, transportation and the environment-as well as a vision of greater opportunity and prosperity for all Virginians.  The momentum of putting Virginia on strong footing that was built by Governors Tim Kaine and Mark Warner cannot be lost.  We look forward to working with our strong Democratic ticket -- Creigh Deed, Jody Wagner and Steve Shannon -- and our Democratic Delegate candidates to ensure that Virginia continues to move forward.  We also congratulate Terry McAuliffe, Brian Moran and Mike Signer for running strong campaigns that embodied the best of the Virginia Democratic Party.  We know that these talented individuals will continue to provide great service to the people of the Commonwealth for years to come."

The Northern Virginia Democratic Business Council (NVDBC) provides opportunities for Democrats and like-minded independents to meet and network with other professionals as well as local, state and federal elected officials and candidates.  Additionally, the NVDBC brings speakers and programs-of-interest to the Democratic business community.  The Council also contributes to a separate Political Action Committee ("NVDBC PAC") to support the election of business-friendly Democratic candidates running for the Senate of Virginia and House of Delegates between the borders of western and southern borders of Loudoun County and Prince William County and the Potomac River.  For more information on the NVDBC, visit www.nvdembiz.org.
