In 2019 we piloted our primary strategy in the Virginia General Assembly races, supporting three reform-minded Unity candidates through their parties’ primaries.
With a constitutional amendment to end partisan gerrymandering hanging in the balance, Unite America sought to support a slate of candidates who would put the interests of their constituents ahead of their political party.
Our endorsement committee looked for candidates who were in safe red or blue districts, supported the amendment to establish a redistricting commissions, and were committed to joining a bipartisan caucus.
Ultimately, Unite America endorsed one Republican and two Democrats in the June 2019 primaries.
