I pay for all the roads and I don’t use 99.99% of them. I don’t use any of the roads North of Fredericksburg and Micky D doesn’t want tolls on any of those. If you want to scrap the gas tax, personal property tax, and all the DMV fees and replace them with a milage tax or tolls on ALL roads, I could perhaps warm to the idea, but the way it is being carried out is double taxation. The roads around here haven’t even been maintained since Mark Warner left office. I would have thought that Micky D being from Virginia Beach would have helped matters here in Hampton Roads, but the Northern Virginia bias continues. Some shill from Loudon County proposed last year to put tolls on all our existing tunnels to pay for roads that he needed in Northern Virginia and local republicans had the gall to agree with him. Hence, my reservations on the Republican Party of Virginia

Election Day is here and all our exhaustive hours of phone calls, door knocking and get out the vote efforts will finally be put to the test! Republicans have a tremendous opportunity today to put Virginia on a course that leads to prosperity and economic growth for many years to come. Remember that every vote counts and we need to get all of our like-minded friends, family members and neighbors to the polls today to make sure our candidates come out on top! I just voted at my local precinct. “Like” this post and share it with your friends if you already voted this morning too.
