Is Stolle Dunnavant now Ineligible to run for the Republican Nomination? Or does the RPV Double Standard apply?

Well, I’ll put it out there because it is a question that needs to be answered. But Siobhan Stolle Dunnavant has the political dynasty of her brothers to run interference, so I doubt this will even be considered.

The RPV rules state in Section 1, Qualifications:

4.In addition to the foregoing, to be in accord with the principles of the Republican Party, unless otherwise stipulated by the appropriate Official Committee, a person otherwise qualified hereunder shall not have participated in Virginia in the nomination process of a party other than the Republican Party with in the last five years.

It is now well known that Siobhan Stolle Dunnavant initially considered seeking the Democratic Nomination and even went so far as to meet with Democratic Senators. Read the story here.

Now if this was a real Conservative Republican (as opposed to the RINO fake brand of conservatism) that had considered the Democratic nomination, such a person would have been accused of participating in the Democratic nomination process and purged from the Republican ranks.

But since she is a Stolle, I would assume that , like Bill Janis who ran as an Independent in 2011 and caused a Democratic victory, Stolle Dunnavant will be held to a different standard.

But I am curious. Is this written with such vague language to allow the RPV to apply different standards to different Republicans?

Of course it is! It is how Republicans roll and control!
