NORFOLK, Va. – Norfolk’s finest are bringing home the national title!
The Norfolk Police Department was voted best lip sync video during CBS’s “Lip Sync to the Rescue” special on September 9. Actor and comedian Cedric the Entertainer, star of the CBS comedy “The Neighborhood,” hosted the special, and country music superstar Luke Bryan made an appearance.
Viewers voted for the #1 video during the broadcast. The first round of voting began on CBS.com in April, and the Top 10 videos were revealed during the live show.
NPD’s video was one of two videos to advance to the live vote before they were decided as the winner. They will be awarded $100,000, and the runner-up, the Seattle Police Department, will receive $50,000.

We need volunteers the day of the event. The more people that help with set-up, the less each will have to contribute. If you can help, please contact Liz Lockwood at 757-685-6348. Leave a message, she will call back. If you can’t commit in advance, show up at the playground the day of the picnic at 10:30am.

Voters in parts of Hampton Roads and the Eastern Shore will go to the polls Tuesday, June 11, to select Democratic and Republican candidates for November’s General Assembly elections. Lynwood Lewis and Willie Randall are candidates for the Democratic nomination in Virginia’s 6th Senate District. There is no Republican nominee running for this seat.
Since Virginia doesn’t register voters by party, anyone can vote in any primary. But you’ll have to choose the Democratic or Republican ballot — you can’t vote in both. Polls will be open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Most Wards Corner Civic League residents vote at Granby Elementary. Residents on the west & north side of Nesbitt Drive vote at Titustown Recreation Center.
