OTR 05/04: Suffolk mayor, RPV chair

Posted in Local, Politics, Virginia by vjp on May 3rd, 2008

OTR LogoThis Sunday’s On the Record will feature Suffolk Mayor Linda Johnson, who will discuss the recovery efforts in her city in the aftermath of Monday’s tornado.

In the other segment, host Joel Rubin will be joined by RPV chair John Hager. I hope Rubin asks him about the challenge from Jeff Frederick for the party chairmanship and doesn’t just chat about the upcoming wedding of Hanger’s son to Bush’s daughter.

In his My Minute segment, Rubin gives his take on the Wright controversy.

Catch OTR at 11:30am on WVEC. If you miss the airing, it will be available on the website on Monday.

    Is this right? Did I hear that there will be no Federal Disaster designation for Suffolk?

    Guess we are broke.

    Since it’s pretaped you can’t zero in on it, but Hager should be worried after what happened at yesterday’s Republican 2nd District Convention: three year incumbent 2nd District Chair Burce Meyer was trounced by Gary Byler 66%-34%.

    Mark - that’s my understanding. Seems it doesn’t meet the threshold.

    HMR - yes, I read that. Seems the Republicans are having establishment vs newcomer argument as well. And Rubin didn’t ask about the Frederick challenge.
