For Democrat Creigh Deeds, the road to Richmond began in the Shenandoah Valley. The candidate for governor took his campaign tour to Waynesboro Friday.
Deeds began his political career as a state delegate whose district included part of Augusta County. He told supporters he will work to bring green jobs to the Valley, possibly through bio-mass energy research.
"People in rural Virginia are sick and tired of their greatest export they send away every year being their children and grandchildren. We've got to work to create opportunity in all of Virginia," stated Deeds (D).
Deeds helped open the Waynesboro Democratic headquarters. He also met with several small-business owners in downtown Waynesboro and Staunton.
