Man, the stuff coming out of Richmond today! The latest is that the budget bill passed by the Senate is not a valid vote because it didn’t pass with an 80% majority.
We’ll see how this plays out.

I watched this play out in the Senate last week (yes, my life is just that exciting). I think that the LG’s view of the bill was technically correct.

As someone who doesn’t hang out in legislative galleries much, the process seemed somewhat opaque.

I think it’s time for the proprietors of 7 West to rev up their old blog, Extra Innings, since we’re headed for overtime.
