McKay Taps Barker Operative for Lee

Jeffrey C. McKay, Fairfax Supervisor-elect for Lee District, has named a key campaign operative for State Senator-elect George L. Barker (Fairfax) as his chief of staff. Scott Robinson was director of field operations for Barker, who unseated J.K. "Jay" O'Brien in the 39th District race last month. Lee District comprises a good portion of the 39th. McKay, the long-time chief of staff for retiring incumbent T. Dana Kauffman, said he plans to retain the rest of Kauffman's district staff, including communications director Linda Waller and assistants Christina Manning, Joan Clark and Marcus Wadsworth.
