I'm Rob Banse โ father, pastor, and Democrat for Delegate in HD-30.
I've spent my life leading communities as a pastor, and I know that there's more that unites our community than divides us. I hope you'll join me. ๐
A beautiful morning to VOTE! Here with my good friend Jeff in Delaplane. Many, many thanks to all those volunteering at the polls today.
Happy Election Day, Virginia! ๐โญ๏ธ๐ณ๏ธ
My opponent was condemned for "headlining [a] โStop the Stealโ rally on Nov. 8, 2020, alongside Oath Keepers militia founder Stewart Rhodes. Rhodes was convicted of seditious conspiracy for his role in the Capitol insurrection."
Our democracy is on the ballot. Vote Nov 7.
NEW: More than a fifth of Virginia GOP candidates have questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 election, and some even joined the Jan. 6, 2021, โStop the Stealโ rally.
Democracy is on the ballot!

My opponent headlined and attended numerous Stop the Steal rallies across Loudoun County. At one, he warned โweโre not going to have a peaceful transition of power.โ
Election deniers threaten our democracy and have no place in our government.
Just days after Biden won re-election, Republican Geary Higgins (#HD30), spoke at a first of-it's-kind "Stop the Steal" rally alongside high-profile members of the far-right.
He is one of many election deniers running in Virginia. We have to stop them.

I'm honored to be a @MomsDemand Gun Sense Candidate.
Guns are the number 1 cause of death of children in the US. When we talk about public safety, we must talk about gun safety. I'm committed to reducing gun violence and honoring the rights of responsible gun owners.

My opponent is an election denier who headlined Stop the Steal rallies across Loudoun and whose views threaten our democracy.
I'm proud to be endorsed by @NSLforAmerica, a bipartisan group of veterans and national security officials who know how to safeguard our nation.
