AMA: I'm Rob Tracinski, and I'm running for Congress in Virginia's Fifth District. Ask me anything!
I'm Rob Tracinski, and I'm running for the Democratic nomination for Congress in Virginia's Fifth District, which runs from Charlottesville down through Lynchburg to Danville and also takes in a lot of rural Central and Southside Virginia--like Louisa County where I've lived for the last 30 years.
I'm running to rein in the power of an out-of-control president and restore the constitutional balance in Washington, DC. I like to say that I think the US Congress is a good idea, and it would be nice if we had one--instead of the kind of rubber stamps we have now, like our incumbent John McGuire.
And yes, I used to be a Tea Party guy. But I don't think going from the Tea Party to No Kings is that big a leap, when you think about it--and I'm disappointed more people didn't follow that path.
You can find out more at my website, TracinskiForCongress.com, or you can Ask Me Anything here. Post your questions, make 'em tough and probing, and I'll start in tomorrow morning answering as many as I can.
EDIT: Since some people are missing this, the plan was that I was posting the announcement now, and I'll be online tomorrow, Wednesday, May 20, answering them. Thanks!
