Description | Jeffrey Clark, a Virginia tea party activist and small businessman, is planning an independent campaign for Congress in Democratic Rep. Tom Perriello’s district — but he’ll follow through only if the GOP nominates the one candidate he’s judged unacceptable.
If state Sen. Robert Hurt wins the GOP primary on June 8, Clark told POLITICO, he’ll move ahead as an unaffiliated conservative candidate even at the risk of undermining Republican efforts to oust Perriello.
“I would rather see Tom Perriello for two more years than the wrong conservative there for 20 years,” Clark said. |
