“His presence with us this time will be very meaningful and he’s going to bring with him...many, many members of his very select committee that was Virginians for Robb four years ago.”
The Democrats will gather for their convention Saturday in Richmond, but none of the nominations is contested.
Attorney General Gerald L. Babies, who beat Mr. Durrette in 1981, will head the ticket. Del. Mary Sue Terry of Patrick County will run for attorney general.
