Virginia will turn blue!

Just finished reviewing the numbers on the SBE website. Right this minute, Obama is leading by about 19,000 votes. Looking at what’s not in the numbers – Richmond, Roanoke, parts of Arlington, and Fairfax County – it’s pretty clear that Virginia has, for the first time in 44 years, voted for a Democrat for President.

About Vivian J. Paige

A former candidate, I've learned a lot about politics, both good and bad. I'd prefer more of the former and a lot less of the latter and I'm trying to do my part!

  2. Dear Ms. Paige:

    I am considering for running for City Treasurer in Petersburg, VA. I have never run for any office, but I want to serve our city. I am wondering what you learned about the political process when you ran for City Treasurer?

    Sincerely,

    Kevin Brown
