Description | A divisive GOP Senate primary appears to be in the making in Virginia, where conservative Republican Corey Stewart seems to be laying the groundwork for a run at former Sen. George Allen (R-Va.).
Neither candidate has announced their intentions but state Republicans expect Allen to make a play for his old seat while Stewart is putting out feelers with his tough talk on illegal immigration.
Stewart, the chairman of the Prince William County Board of Supervisors, led efforts in 2007 to pass a controversial ordinance aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration.
Now, along with a group of state legislators, Stewart hopes to get the ordinance adopted statewide and grab some national attention in the process. |
