Democratic Primary for the 91st House Seat

UPDATE
Olaf Gebhart is no longer a candidate for the 91st House District. There will be no primary for that seat, although we still need strong turnout for the gubernatorial primary. Sam Eure will still need the active backing of Peninsula Democrats, including raising money and volunteers to work the phones and canvass to encourage voter turnout in November. If you are interested, please send an email to victory@yorkdemocrat.org. Sam will be facing the winner of the Republican primary between incumbent Tom Gear and Poquoson mayor Gordon Helsel.
