The GOP primary in Virginia's 5th Congressional District where House Freedom Caucus Chair Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., is fighting for re-election takes place next Tuesday.

A recent poll shows Good's challenger, state Sen. John McGuire, in the lead.

A group of Republicans in the 5th Congressional District has urged former President Donald Trump to reverse course and endorse Good over McGuire.

Rick Buchanan, chair of the 5th District Republican Congressional Committee, and a group of 24 Republican leaders in the district wrote a letter to Trump encouraging him to rescind his endorsement of McGuire.

“We hope President Trump reconsiders his ill-advised endorsement and stands with the Grassroots America First supporters of Congressman Bob Good,” Buchanan and the other Republicans wrote.
