Gainesville, Dec. 10, 2022- With today's news of Supervisor Candland’s resignation, the Prince William Board of Supervisors will set a date for a special election in the new year.
I look forward to taking my campaign to every corner of the Gainesville District in the coming weeks. I am running to represent the District in order to protect the Rural Crescent, reduce the tax burden on families, and improve our public safety.
Public service is challenging and I applaud anyone who would serve in elected office. While I may have disagreed with some of Mr. Candland’s actions, I recognize his commitment to service that he had as a long-time Supervisor for this District. I also applaud the Candland family for their sacrifice and commitment to Pete’s work on the Board.
As the Board of Supervisors considers a vote this week on an amendment to the comprehensive plan, I urge them to postpone the vote! Gainesville has not had representation on this issue for months - it’s important for this District to have a voice before more decisions are made regarding the PW Digital Gateway and surrounding development. I have fought to protect our community for over a decade. My commitment to our community is unwavering.

UPDATE NOTE: Bristow Beat received word of two additional candidates vying for office. Bob Weir will challenge Satterwhite to be the Republican candidate. Kerensa Green Sumers is running as a Democrat.
