I know I don’t have many followers and this will reach only so many but I want people to know that @QasimRashid truly does have the best interest of Virginians at heart. He has actually engaged with the people at their doorstep as he did me.
I was caught off guard that Monday in 2019 he knocked on my door, I thought maybe a solicitor wanted to sell me on religion or maybe siding for my home. Either way I was going to see who this man was. He introduced himself and shook my hand and told me...
Who he was and gave me his flyer and asked for my vote. He didn’t care about my race or my political affiliation and told me what he wanted to do. Honestly I was beside myself. This was the first time in my life that a candidate or a politician ever..
Knocked on my door. I thanked him and closed the door. I sat and read the brief flyer he gave me and decided to hop on the computer and read more about him. All I found was an upstanding citizen that had accomplished a lot in his short professional..
Life and it made me feel good about @QasimRashid. After reading everything I could find about him and thinking about him and the interaction, I sent him a PM on FB and told him he would have my vote in the primary. I honestly didn’t expect to hear...
Back from him and he showed me I would be wrong. He sent me back a message and thanked me for the support and asked to not be a stranger. My wife and I voted for him last year and we voted this year for him in the primary. I have watched him since then..
And how he interacts with the community and I cannot be more proud of him and my choice to support him. Watching him during the protests of the murder of George Floyd and his interactions with the community in VA-01 makes me want to run through...
A brick wall for him. He has shown he is committed, compassionate, caring, loves his community and the people in it and will work hard to fight for them. As a Virginian if you truly care about your state you need to look at what he is fighting for...
His campaign has no corporate donations, strictly the people, myself included. I have donated $100 and will donate more with time. Seeing him out here with protesters and raising awareness to police brutality and injustices in the system..
Will get your attention as he is doing it day in and day out. You know who I have not seen do this? @RobWittman. Mr. Wittman is to busy lobbying for big business and big money and taking awards as small businesses close during this..
Pandemic. @RobWittman is busy hobnobbing with big money and millionaires to fill their needs in VA-01 and neglecting the communities. @QasimRashid on the other hand is standing with his community.
At the end of the day, when it is all said and done, this 45 year old white male will support and vote for @QasimRashid as he shares the same beliefs I do and I think his is the perfect person to run against @RobWittman. If you have doubts after this..
Just open your mind and learn about him. You will see he is your neighbor, friend, your acquaintance, a passing stranger that wants nothing but to help you and the community. That is my statement on @QasimRashid and I will leave you with this...
That day he knocked on my door and introduced himself he actually knew my name and even pronounced correctly. You can say he has a voter roll to read off of, but he took the time to read it. That says a lot about a person. He said my name and shook my hand.
No other candidate or politician has ever done that much or even knocked on my door and done it. It’s the little things you should look for in a candidate to see if they are sincere. I believe he is and will support him till my end of days and so should you. #VA01
