That area has entirely changed in the last decade. You won’t be electing anything more than a moderate GOP or a Democrat there now.

If I recall correctly, the voters of washington threw him out of office because he voted in favor of an assault weapon ban.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = =
He was a ‘victim’ of the Newt G. ‘revolution’.

Think he sued the voters in his district also......

Guess T Wolfe was correct, “You can’t go home again”, if a politician...It was reported he passed at his home in Washington DC.....

Now just a bleepin second!

How do you do that? How does he know how they voted? What if they voted for him? I thought you had the right to cast your ballot anyway you wanted.

It's a joke....Right?

Well, they ‘screwed’ him...

He had it on GOOD source that he was a ‘shoo in’ but the actual #’s were wrong as they couldn’t ‘buy enough votes’ — or something like that.

We are talking Liberals here!!!!

I rembember back a few years ago when we ‘joked’ that the retirees in FL voted in FL and NY. Turns out, probably truer than was really imagined.

VA is being sued by the DNC because they just purged about 40000 either non existent, or people registered in more than one state.

From NPR:
He had allowed his name to be attached to a lawsuit in his home state that challenged a term-limit referendum approved by the voters there. He was, in a sense, suing his own voters.

From BLOOMBERG:
Foley angered some voters back home in Washington by suing to challenge a state referendum passed in 1992 that imposed term limits on state and federal officials.

It did (B) say that a Fed Judge ruled in his favor on 94 but he got beat that year.....
