Johnson cites experience as Roanoke Sheriff in run for Virginia Governor Octavia Johnson (Source: WDBJ) By Joe Dashiell | WDBJ | May 7, 2021 at 10:07 PM EDT - Updated May 7 at 10:07 PM
ROANOKE CO., Va. (WDBJ) - Octavia Johnson says her concern for the Commonwealth prompted her run for Governor.
“It was just things that have happened here within the state that’s caused our foundations, the erosion of it,” Johnson told WDBJ7 in a recent interview, “I said Octavia, there’s no need to sit back, mumble and complain. The only way that you can make change is to run.”
Johnson announced her campaign in early March on the steps of the Roanoke Municipal Building. And she said her service as the city’s sheriff for eight years shows she is a capable leader.
