Well, I did the dirty deed. I voted for Earley. Personally, I think he'll lose. A lot of factors will play into it.
I voted Libertarian for the first time in my life. We need to end the WOD. The Lt. Gov. candidate made that a hallmark of his campaign. In fact, this was the first time that I had voted for anyone outside of the Republican Party. I also voted for the local Libertarian Delegate candidate.

Well, Dane, for once you and I are in agreement. I voted Libertarian for Lt. Gov., and for Earley in the Gubernatorial race. Happy now?

So you're more than happy to vote for a Republican who won't get substantive tax reform than vote for a Libertarian who will? Psst, the Libertarian won't win. Under warner you are going to get a tax hike, no matter what and again Mark Warner wants to say thank you for your vote.

If a Republican governor will cut taxes, why are you asking for tax cuts after two terms under GOP control? George Allen tried to cut taxes but was stopped by the RAT controlled General Assembly. (He accomplished everything else he promised).
Jim Gilmore cut the car tax and also signed the legislation eliminating sales tax on over the counter medications.
As far as I'm concerned, the response to EVERY tax cut should be "Thank you sir. May I have another?"

I saw someone hand back the sample ballot to the Warner rep saying "Warner is the democrat???". I think having the "R" and "D" placed next to the candidates names helps us a lot more than we think in this election.This is something I'd wondered about. John Warner is fairly popular, I think, and I'm sure there's lots of confusion that might be fixed when people finally see the party affiliations. Mark Warner always disguised the fact that he's a Dem.

Does anyone know when the polls close in VA and NJ?Don't know about NJ, but the Virginia polls close at 7 PM.

Just like Jesse Ventura couldn't win? Of course he won't win if you don't vote for him.
Uh at least jesse ventura had experience as a politician. He was a mayor. Also he had name recognition from a culture that goes ga-ga over staged wrestling.

I have to use it too, but like I said--I'll spend the night if it means a Warner loss.
To: The Federal Farmer
Oh BTW, Mark Warner thanks you for your vote.

My opinion: Early does not deserve to win. My observations: Poor representation. Poor organization. Lack of contact with the public. Inferior coordination and utilization of volunteers. (for ex. no-one at polling places except socialist Warner cronies) I have not voted yet, need to go by after work. Dark day for Virginia. I am sad.

"I feel much better voting for Redpath and Reams..." I looked into Redpath, but he appeared to be to the Left of the GOP candidate...Reams seems like a good guy, but he seems waaay to caught up with the Reeferendum Issue at the expense of some much more pressing issues. Personally, I'm more than a bit soured on the Libertarian Party due to Harry Browne's anti-American--MHO--comments following 9/11. I'm libertarian by political philosophy, but I'm beginning to think the Libertarian Party's got a tone-deaf political ear.
FReegards...MUD

But people voted for a third party candidate because he offered something the Republican-Democrat duo didn't -- a real alternative. jesse ventura got elected because of young voters who thought it would be cool.
Jesse is just your run of the mill liberal politician.

And all the useless government workers who will still have jobs and suck tax money under a Republican governor thank you And that great big sucking sound of tax dollars going out of taxpayers pockets is going to grow under warner.
Again mark warner thanks you for your vote.

You heard a lot of the same rhetoric in 1776. Fewer than one-third of the colonists supported independence,Get 33% in the polls, and then the Libertarians will present an option to consider. Below 30%, and all you can do is make sure the leftist candidates win.
