17 Year Old Delegate Will Be Youngest in Tampa


Evan Draim is no regular high schooler from Mount Vernon. He has earned his way into the Republican National Convention next week as the youngest delegate out of more than 2,000. Draim will be heading to Tampa as a delegate for Virginia's 8th Congressional District. He campaigned day and night, and even edged out the Arlington County Republican Committee Chairman for the spot.

Evan is a new, young face at the convention, but is no stranger to politics. 3 years ago, he convinced his father to take him to the Virginia GOP convention; in which our own governor Bob McDonnell was nominated.

Draim represents an entirely new generation of Republicans, a fresh mind full of ideas, and the yet-young future of the party. We wish him a happy and productive convention and a good time in Tampa. Congratulations, Evan.
