Faulk Not Running for 5th District Seat

Posted: Updated:

Cordel Faulk -- a former spokesman for the UVA Center for Politics -- says he will NOT run against Fifth District Congressman Tom Perriello.

Faulk was considering a run as a Republican. He tells us that he's decided against a bid for office in order to pursue another opportunity, which he will detail sometime in the near future.
