If you are in the districts of any of these candidates, please contact those who have NOT
responded to the VCDL survey and urge them to send their survey in.

Also, contact the candidates who answered the VCDL Candidate Survey "Very Pro-Gun" and
thank them for their strong response.

NOTES
1. VCDL cannot & does not endorse candidates for public office. VCDL-PAC is a state level
Political Action Committee (PAC) and can & does endorse candidates for state or local
office (but *not* federal).
2. No candidates were rated. To rate a candidate, one needs to factor in a lot of information,
including, but not limited to the following:

 how they answered the survey

 their voting record (if any)
 legal actions they've been involved in (if any)
 their public statements (if any)
 their private statements (if any)

3. The "grade" shown next to a candidate's name is HOW THEY ANSWERED THE SURVEY.
Their survey response was graded and the grade (Very Pro-Gun, Pro-Gun, So-So,
Anti-Gun, Very Anti-Gun) was displayed, as we have been doing for the last 8+ years.
4. VCDL-PAC rates the candidates by evaluating information identified in #2 above. The
VCDL-PAC endorsement serves as the candidate rating.
5. While VCDL publishes the survey grade well before the General Election, the exact Yes/No
answers to the survey will not be published until a few days before the General Election.
This is the procedure VCDL has been following for the last 8+ years.
