That may be an unlikely subject line for a WebAIM discussion, but read on.

Yesterday, Eric Cantor, Minority Leader of the House, lost his primary
election. His opponent was David Brat, a Randolph-Macon College professor.

In an interesting twist, his Democratic opponent will be Jack Trammell,
also a Randolph-Macon College professor.

But where it gets interesting for this list, is that Trammell has directed
the school's disability support services department and its honors program
and serves as an associate professor of sociology, specializing in
disability issues in higher education.


What an opportunity!

Campaign website and social media. Not much there yet -- after all, he
expected to be running against Eric Cantor.
