To Whom It May Concern,

It is with great pride and confidence that I offer my full endorsement of Delegate Terry Austin. As a dedicated public servant, Delegate Austin has consistently demonstrated unwavering commitment to the safety, prosperity, and well-being of our region.

In my role as Jail Administrator at the Alleghany Regional Jail, I have had the opportunity to witness Delegate Austin’s tireless advocacy for public safety, law enforcement, and corrections. His responsiveness to the needs of our community and his support of critical infrastructure and public service initiatives have made a meaningful and lasting impact.

Delegate Austin has earned a reputation for principled leadership, approachability, and effectiveness. He listens to his constituents, understands the unique challenges facing rural communities, and works diligently to deliver real results. Whether it’s securing funding for local projects, promoting policies that support working families, or advancing public safety legislation, Delegate Austin has always placed the interests of his district first.

As we approach the upcoming Republican primary, currently scheduled for June 17, 2025, I encourage all eligible voters to make their voices heard. Early voting is now open, providing convenient options to participate ahead of Election Day. Please take the time to verify local voting information and support a candidate who has consistently championed our community.

I am honored to support Delegate Terry Austin and am confident that he will continue to serve with integrity, determination, and a deep sense of duty to the people of the Commonwealth.

Sincerely,
Major R.W. Keen, Jr.
Jail Administrator
Alleghany County Sheriff’s Office and Regional Jail
