In Virginia’s 5th Congressional District race the contrast between opponents is stark. The Republican nominee, Denver Riggleman, is an Air Force veteran and local small business owner.

Riggleman served our country as an Air Force intelligence officer. Cockburn tried to claim her work for major media outlets is the same as serving in the military.
