Kimberly Pope-Adams 

Kimberly is a lifelong Virginian who loves calling Dinwiddie home. She’s an Accountant and Auditor who wants to bring accountability to the House of Delegates. Growing up in the “Five Forks” area of Hopewell, Kimberly has a deep-rooted connection to the traditions and culture of the Tri-Cities.

Her deep love for the area she grew up in is the cornerstone of why she’s running to serve the new 82nd District. Our District of Petersburg, Dinwiddie, Prince George, and Surry deserves a Delegate to fight for all of us. Kim is a mother whose community has seen hardships that were preventable. She’s ready to be a voice for a District that has long been ignored by Richmond. Kim will stand with farmers, local businesses, and community leaders to make our District thrive.
