Culpeper and did not seek change.
Fauquier county, having had a delegate for the county alone, sought no associate. Statements that had been repeated saying Fauquier didn't want Rappahannock seem to have stemmed from the fact that they wanted no one. • There were never any reasons that Fauquier had any prejudices against Rappahannock; it was just that they had had their own delegate and wanted the district to remain as it was.
Delegate Tom Frost, of Fauquier, is known by many Rappahannock people and is spoken of in highest terms.
This re-districting does not go into effect until after the 1965 election. The 1956 session of the Assembly will be the fipt body seated under the new organization.
Elections in 1953 will be under the same districts. Culpeper and Rappahannock will elect a delegate for one more two-year term, as will Madison and Orange district.
No statement has been issued by either of the present delegates from these two districts, but it'is supposed that D. French Slaughter, of Culpeper-Rappahannock, and Norman Bailey, of OrangeMadison, will seek re-election. Outside information says that Norman Bailey’s re-naming may be declined by that gentleman, but he has made no statement to that effect.
Since one of them is out in the 1955 re-districting, there is no way* to tell which one may seek the Assembly seat.
