North captures GOP Senate nomination in Virginia
Oliver North won the Republican Senate nomination at the Richmond convention, claiming he would reclaim government from Clinton allies. He defeated James Miller III 4,858 to 3,924 on a weighted vote of 8,782 total, as Coleman consideration and Wilder’s possible bid loom. North framed his campaign as a comeback amid a liberal government and rising deficits.
