Howell to Run for Governor as Independent
RICHMOND AP Independent Lt. Gov. Henry E. Howell Jr. told the 10th District Democratic Committee he will seek the governor’s office as an independent and not seek the Democratic nomination. WTVR-TV reported the announcement followed a Arlington meeting with about 20 attendees. Howell said a poll showed former Democratic Gov. Mills E. Godwin Jr. leading in a two way race, while Howell could win a three way race but lose more voters than Godwin. He aims to raise about 750000 for his campaign and would accept the party endorsement for a two way race.

Green Springs District Named in Louisa County
The Green Springs area in Louisa County was designated a national historic district by the Interior Department and Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission. The move may affect a state prison location plan but officials caution it does not guarantee outcomes. Historic designation makes Green Springs eligible for preservation grants and requires federal agencies to consult the advisory council if licenses or licenses with federal funding are involved.
