From left: candidates, Former Va. NAACP President Sean Perryman; Va. Sen. David Marsden, surrogate for Norfolk Councilwoman Andria McClellan; and Del. Mark Levine. Exchanges among them were spirited, with several areas of agreement. While both Perryman and Levine opposed taking contributions from Dominion Power or corporate PACs, Perryman called out Levine for taking a $300,000 loan from himself. Sen. Marsden was at a disadvantage, unable to specify candidate McClellan’s position on policy issues, e.g., police reform & campaign finance.
