In any campaign canvassing and door knocking within a candidate's district is the bread and butter of any serious and successful campaign. It allows the candidate to get to know the issues most affecting their neighbors and hopefully future constituents and speak to them directly. We all should know that a candidate can't possibly knock on every single door within their district by themselves and typically rely on staffers and volunteers to provide boots on the ground to get the message out. Well, in the 86th District Republican incumbent Tom Rust is trying to deceive his constituents into believing he is knocking on every door himself! As a constituent, I can tell you that is not the case and I have proof!

As most politically astute Virginia Democrats are aware, this election cycle presents us with an incredible opportunity to retake control of the Virginia House of Delegates. I think taking back the House starts in the 86th District.
The race between Republican incumbent Tom Rust and Democratic challenger and Dulles District Supervisor Stevens Miller in the 86th District is arguably the top targeted race in the state for Democrats to see a change in parties. As a resident of the 86th, I wanted to make sure everyone in Virginia knows as much about what the Miller campaign is calling "The Fourth Statewide Race." I can say without any question that the 86th is the best pick up opportunity for Virginia Democrats right now.
