    VERIZON POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS JANUARY – DECEMBER 2008 Verizon Political Contributions January – December 2008 1 A Message from Tom Tauke Verizon is affected by a wide variety of government policies — from telecommunications regulation to taxation to health care and more — that have an enormous impact on the business climate in which we operate. We owe it to our shareowners, employees and customers to advocate public policies that will enable us to compete fairly and freely in the marketplace. Political contributions are one way we support the democratic electoral process and participate in the policy dialogue. Our employees have established political action committees at the federal level and in 25 states. These political action committees (PACs) allow employees to pool their resources to support candidates for office who generally support the public policies our employees advocate. This report lists all PAC contributions and corporate political contributions made by Verizon in 2008. The contribution process is overseen by the Corporate Governance and Policy Committee of our Board of Directors, which receives a comprehensive report and briefing on these activities at least annually. We intend to update this voluntary disclosure twice a year and publish it on our corporate website. We believe this transparency with respect to our political spending is in keeping with our commitment to good corporate governance and a further sign of our responsiveness to the interests of our shareowners.

  • GENERAL ASSEMBLY PRIMARIES, June 10, 2003 a Long Time Ago in a Place Far Away, the 'Real' Election for Most Virginia Public
    GENERAL ASSEMBLY PRIMARIES, June 10, 2003 A long time ago in a place far away, the ‘real’ election for most Virginia public offices was the party primary. The primary was called “tantamount to election”, and the November general election was merely a formality.1 Some might say it is back to the future, except the world to which Virginia has returned is a reversed negative of the past. The old “tantamount primary” was Democratic during the first six decades of the twentieth century when the Democrats ruled the political roost. In 2003 most of the "tantamount" primaries were Republican, since the GOP has changed places with its rival. Thanks to its new statewide dominance and the favorable redistricting of 2001, engineered by a Republican governor and legislature, the key General Assembly primaries of 2003---the ones that really mattered---were Republican. And in the state Senate, especially, the winners were nearly assured of election in the fall. Yet, as we shall see, the Democrats also sponsored some “good as elected” primaries in 2003, yet their dwindling minority status in the General Assembly, especially the House of Delegates, made these contests more curiosities than consequential events. In a handful of majority African-American districts, there was a generational changing of the guard due to retirements. In time, those new delegates and senator may have an impact, at least within the Democratic legislative caucuses. It was the GOP, though, that dominated the primary stage on June 10, 2003. Most of the interest centered on three Senate battles between incumbent moderate-conservatives and hard- right conservative challengers.
