A while back I mentioned Vern McKinley’s 10th district congressional bid. He’s gathered enough signatures to make it on the ballot for the Republican primary, and is gearing up to fight the Feckless Wonder, congressman Frank Wolf, with whom I am not amused.

If you would like to see Frank Wolf turned out and replaced with a small-government, go-to-hell-I’m-keeping-my-guns Republican, contribute to Vern McKinley for Congress. I just did. Even Dick Heller of Heller vs. DC fame is supporting him.

How well did my picks for the local elections fare? It was a mixed bag.

The State Board of Elections election results page has the details.

In the House of Delegates race, Rust (for whom I did not vote but is the lesser of two evils) won easily against Donahue (for whom I also did not vote).

Tomorrow is election day for Virginia local political races. There are some dismal prospects on the ballot this year, and no Green Party candidate available for a protest vote, but I’ll be voting nonetheless. The Washington Post has a good overview of the various County-level issues on the ballot.

Senate

I’m beginning to wonder how much longer I can claim to live in VA due to its greater respect for individual liberty over the relatively less free Maryland. It’s not enough that we have a governor who’s horrified that private citizens can have more than a box of ammo without registering with the state. It’s not enough that our feckless General Assembly passes tax hike after tax hike despite an enormous $2 billion budget surplus. It’s not even enough that my own town of Herndon establishes a haven for illegal day laborers.
