On Sunday, September 30, hundreds of Arab Americans enjoyed a wonderful evening of politics and good company at the 24th annual Arab American Candidates’ Night. Though it is a bipartisan event, the Democratic candidates gladly participated while the Republican candidates left us wondering if they care about our community.
We were honored that Governor Tim Kaine, Representatives Jim Moran and Gerry Connolly and Democratic candidate Kristen Cabral spoke with guests. Though this was Ms. Cabral’s first election, the three incumbents have visited with us many times over the years. In addition to these Democratic candidates, Democratic Party of Virginia Chairman Brian Moran also addressed the audience.
Media from around the world covered this event and many participants were interviewed.
Here are a few photos from the Candidates’ Night.
