SCHOENEMAN ANNOUNCES INTENT TO RUN FOR SULLY DISTRICT SUPERVISOR
Will resign from Fairfax County Electoral Board on Wednesday
CENTRVILLE, VA Fairfax County Electoral Board Secretary Brian Schoeneman has announcedhis intent to run for the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. Schoeneman is seeking the seat being
vacated by Supervisor Michael Frey (R-Sully), who announced his retirement on Monday.
Having spent the last two years supervising elections in Fairfax County, I realized that I couldbetter serve my community by putting my name on a ballot, rather than continue counting them,
Schoeneman said Tuesday. I look forward to working hard, earning the Republican nomination andrunning a successful campaign through November.
Schoeneman, a Republican, has served over the last two years as Vice Chairman and later asSecretary of the Fairfax County Electoral Board. In 2011, he ran for Virginia House of Delegatesagainst Delegate David Bulova (D-37
th) in a district that included portions of Sully. He also serves
on the Fairfax County Economic Advisory Commission, and was a member of the Bi-PartisanElection Process Improvement Commission established by the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors
following the 2012 Presidential Election.
As a Republican, I have long advocated for balanced budgets, low taxes, reducing the crushingburden of regulations on Fairfax employers, expanding economic development to bring good jobs to
Fairfax County, and fighting to ensure that Fairfax County remains the best place to live, work andraise a family, he noted. If elected, I hope to continue my record as a transparent, accessible and
honest public servant. I plan on spending the next eleven months meeting the voters of Sully Districtand demonstrating to them I have the common sense, good judgment and experience to serve them
as their County Supervisor.
Sully Magisterial District, which encompasses Centreville, Chantilly, and portions of Clifton andOakton, has been represented since its creation by Michael Frey, who announced his intention to
retire after six terms on Monday. Ive been privileged to know and work with Michael over the lastfive years. He was very helpful to me during my campaign in 2011, where we spent weekends door
knocking together, and in my time on the Electoral Board he has been a welcome resource. No onewill be able to fill his shoes, but I look forward to the opportunity to succeed him and continue his
excellence in constituent services.
Under Virginia law, Electoral Board appointees are forbidden to run for office. In order to complywith the law, Schoeneman will be resigning his seat on the Fairfax County Electoral Board on
Wednesday. His replacement will be chosen by the judges of the Circuit Court of Fairfax County.
Schoeneman, 37, is a resident of the Virginia Run community of Centreville, where he lives with hiswife KayAnn and their son Nicholas.
