Signs of support
July 25, 2008 4:03 PM

Lieutenant governor hopeful Jon Bowerbank’s camp said today that he has support from three Democrats who ran for the nomination to the same post in 2005.

Former Congresswoman Leslie Byrne, Sen. Chap Petersen, D-Fairfax City, and Sen. Phillip P. Puckett, D-Russell, have all endorsed Bowerbank, according to a release sent this afternoon.

“Jon and I share many common values,“ Petersen said in the release. “These include economic fairness, environmental protection, educational excellence and standing up for the people against the powerful special interests.“

Bowerbank, a member of the Russell County Board of Supervisors, could have competition for the party’s nomination. Jody Wagner, the state’s Secretary of Finance and a Democrat, has been mentioned as a possible candidate.
