Keith Fimian

Fimian concedes to Connolly

It’s now clear who will represent Virginia’s 11th congressional district in the 112th Congress after Republican Keith Fimian officially conceded the election to incumbent Democrat Gerry Connolly today.

The race between Connolly and Fimian had been too close to call since election night, even with Connolly having a slight advantage that led him to unofficially declare victory that night.

Mason’s Fairfax campus sits in the 11th congressional district.

Fimian touts business experience during Mason visit

The George Mason College Republicans hosted Congressional Candidate Keith Fimian at their meeting Tuesday night.

Fimian, a candidate for Virginia’s 11th Congressional District, which includes the Mason campus, spoke about his candidacy for about 20 minutes to a group of 40 people gathered on the third floor of the Johnson Center.

After arriving over a half-hour late, Fimian talked about his experience as a businessman and CEO and how that experience would benefit him if elected to congress.
