Politics, the concept not the American spectator sport, comes from Ancient Greek politiká or 'affairs of the cities' and is defined as “a set of activities that are associated with making decisions in groups.”
Little is known about the lead-up to the July First joint rally of Virginia’s three statewide candidates: Winsome Earle-Sears, the nominee for Governor; John Reid for Lieutenant Governor; and Attorney General Jason Miyares running for re-election.
