U.S. Senate candidate George Allen will speak to supporters at a breakfast Saturday morning at VFW Post 1503 in Dale City.

Allen, a former Virginia Governor and U.S. Senator, is the frontrunner for the Republican nomination to the Senate seat being vacated by Jim Webb, who defeated Allen's Senate re-election bid in 2006.

In November, Allen got the endorsement of Prince William County Chairman Corey Stewart, who had formerly been critical of Allen's Senate record.
