James Atticus Bowden: GOP grassroots leader endorses Jim Gilmore for Senate

Longtime Republican Poquoson Activist Picks Gilmore For His Conservatism

Poquoson Republican Activist Jim Bowden has endorsed Jim Gilmore's candidacy for the U.S. Senate. A longtime conservative leader, Mr. Bowden was elected and most recently served as the Republican Party's State Central Committee Chairman for the First Congressional District.

"The conservative activism and successful efforts waged by Jim in the campaign to defeat the Transportation Tax Referendum proposed by Mark Warner in 2002 exemplify the type of organization and leadership we are putting together to claim victory for Virginia in November," said Gilmore regarding Bowden's endorsement.

A former Army infantry officer and Harvard and Columbia graduate, Mr. Bowden, is also a professional in the defense industry and a former University professor.

"Governor Jim Gilmore will earn Virginia's pride as her U.S. Senator. Already proven are his trust, courage and consistency, and no one in America possesses his background and understanding of Homeland Security. His long public service to the Commonwealth is the epitome of 'promises made, promises kept.'"

"Jim Gilmore is the Conservative that defense, fiscal and social Conservatives trust. He is the man who respects the votes of Virginians as the true honor it is - and the duty it becomes to serve all Virginians."
