Virginia senator speaking at SC Democratic dinner

The S.C. Democratic party (hearts) Virginia’s U.S. senators.

Sen. Mark Warner will speak at the party’s annual Jefferson-Jackson fundraising dinner on April 24, a year after his Old Dominion senate counterpart Tim Kaine headlined the same event.

The pair of former governors have been mentioned as possible vice presidential picks in 2016.

“Virginia is doing it right,” S.C. Democratic Chairman Jaime Harrison said. “They have good leadership.”
