(Madison, VA) Jane Dittmar, Democratic candidate for Virginia’s 5th District, dominated the Rural Madison sponsored debate at Woodberry Forest tonight.
Dittmar’s command of the facts and understanding of the district overpowered Garrett’s rambling and often inaccurate statements. The forum featured questions prepared by the Rural Madison committee and students from both Woodberry Forest and Madison County Schools.

The questions covered a variety of issues facing the country and included questions about the economy, national security, social security, and more.
“I saw nothing worthwhile from Tom Garrett tonight,” said Suzanne Long who was in attendance. “He continues to offer up only gimmicks and criticisms instead of real plans. The one plan he did offer to reduce student debt only jeopardizes social security and makes no sense at all.”
Meanwhile, Dittmar proposed scrapping the artificial cap on high-income earners —a solution that would keep Social Security solvent for decades to come.
