Republican Craig Parisot to challenge Democrat Murphy in Va.s 34th district

After losing a close special election last month to Democrat state Del. Kathleen Murphy, Republican Craig Parisot announced Tuesday that he wants a rematch in November for Virginias 34th District seat.

We must find bold solutions in Richmond to fix our regions broken transportation system, invest in our schools, and create an economy that reassures families they can achieve a better life if they work hard, Parisot said in a news release that was accompanied by a YouTube video. We can do all this without raising taxes on hard-working Virginians.

Murphy (Fairfax) who beat Parisot by just 324 votes in January, could not immediately be reached for comment.

She began representing the Northern Virginia district that includes portions of Fairfax and Loudoun counties after former state delagate Barbara Comstock won her election in November to represent the 10th congressional district.
