Dalton Camp Denies Role In GOP Letter About Howell
A Virginia state senator says the Republican gubernatorial candidate John Dalton did not approve a letter attacking Democrat Henry Howell as pro bus and pro gun control. An independent group sent the letter signed by Rep. J. Kenneth Robinson to 10 000 to 12 000 Virginians seeking hard hitting TV ads. Dalton campaign staff state no association or authorization and the candidate has not commented beyond backing his director’s repudiation.
