13. Massive turnouts continue – Amelia County photos (see lead image above)
The massive crowd flooded the Board of Supervisors room, the hallways, and out into the front of the building! Supervisors will vote on the Resolution next meeting. Looks like it will be a win! Sheriff also said he supports the resolution. I was the second speaker of the evening.
Around 1/2 a roll of GSL stickers was used up! I’m estimating we gave out 300 to 400 stickers.
Senator Amanda Chase and Delegate John McGuire spoke. McGuire announced a few days ago that he is going to run against Congresswoman Abigale Spanberger in the 7th Congressional District.
About half the crowd outside:
