- Evan - 11-08-2006 Webb by 3k votes. very very strange considering the voting history of the last districts to report and 35k votes made up in the last 5%..... - Feersty - 11-08-2006 Democrats win House, and lead in key Senate races. Basically a clean sweep. - Mike - 11-08-2006 wow... didn't expect to wake up and see this... - Kaan - 11-08-2006 Get ready for higher taxes, Socialist style reform to health care and SS... and more and more of your tax dollars supporting people that dont really want to work so much and would like to pop out more kids. - Apoc - 11-08-2006 Evan Wrote:Webb by 3k votes. Loudoun was only reporting at 45% and those that had reported were 51% dem, 47% Repub so it's not that strange. Careful, you might start to sound like you're insinuating a Vast Left Wing Conspiracy. There's going to be a recount anyway. - CaptainHenreh - 11-08-2006 Kaan Wrote:Get ready for higher taxes, Socialist style reform to health care and SS... and more and more of your tax dollars supporting people that dont really want to work so much and would like to pop out more kids. My only hope is that Jim Webb isn't the utter douchenozzle his own campaign ads made him out to be. See, it's not that I particularly liked George Allen. He's OK, I guess. It's that I couldn't STAND Jim Webb. From Day One, his ads were "George Allen is a racist puppy rapist." I can't stand that shit. At least George Allen waited until near the end of the race to pull the "Webb writes smut." stuff. Which, at least, was true. I don't have a clue what the guy stands for, except that if he's a Democrat, I guess he's for democrat stuff, like higher taxes. *sigh* You know what will get my vote in 2 years? Campaign reform legislation. I got some good ideas, the FCC needs to hire my ass, and get this crap off the air. I don't care what "x" candidate did or said. I want to know what YOU stand for, what YOUR principles are. And while we're at it, election day should be a holiday. I can dream, can't I? - Kaan - 11-08-2006 It wouldnt matter... Evan give it up. The platform of "We arent Republicans like Bush" held firm. Even in the state of Virginia you are seeing the anti bush backlash during the election. here comes the brady bill... higher car taxes in this state... at least my contract isnt over until 2013... hopefully the liberals dont try to trim the military budget so much that they take money away from the combat veterans i try to help every day. - Kaan - 11-08-2006 that was the frustrating thing. The comercials on both sides turned into mud throwing contests. I'd rather see 10 times more road signs and a couple of debates then have the football game and the good times interupted by people pointing fingers. put your ass on TV and argue shit... tells us what you stand for... not what the other guy did when he was in college at some party with a 17 year old. - Andy - 11-08-2006 Unfortunately, negative ads work. Voter interest doesn't begin to rise until the month prior to the election so informative ads don't work because most folks have already picked their team irrespective of the actual candidate. They just need to fear/hate the opposition enough to go out and vote. Lincoln Chafee and the moderate R's deserved better. On a side note, the Dems will hopefully raise the minimum salary for the alternative minimum tax. That should help. Also Kaan, I'll bet my left nut that things won't change very much if at all. They'll be noise initially to appease the base but nothing much after that. So you can sleep well at night - white_2kgt - 11-08-2006 well, at least you guys voted down the gay. - Apoc - 11-08-2006 Is that the faint sound of Republicans crying I hear? I dislike the Democrats just as much but it's amusing to see Republicans bitch about "the other guy" just as much as the Democrats do. - Kaan - 11-08-2006 we are paying appoximately 70% less in car taxes right now. when they start hiking that back up in the state of virginia... that new truck Evan bought is going to cost him $1500 a year extra in taxes the socialist unified health care system they want to put in is going to make this place like Canada... cheap drugs and a 3 month wait to go to the doctor. I love this country! - Apoc - 11-08-2006 Is this where we lecture Evan on the economics of buying new vehicles in poltiical turmoil? - Andy - 11-08-2006 Dems are not going to repeal the car tax. I suspect Kaan thinks liberals actually jerk off to tax increases. - .RJ - 11-08-2006 Andy Wrote:liberals actually jerk off to tax increases. Well, if the shoe fits.... Gotta represent and serve for the fat and lazy, i mean... underpriveledge and disenfranchised. Keepin' it real. - Apoc - 11-08-2006 I don't see your name in the "I voted" so I'm pretty sure anything you say falls on deaf ears. - Evan - 11-08-2006 Apoc Wrote:recounts have never swung more than 800 votes, with Webb's lead up to 8k this morning I doubt Allen will even ask for one.Evan Wrote:Webb by 3k votes. And you know if the situations were reversed the conspiracy and ballot stuffing accusations would already be flying. And no, Im not saying that either, just very surprising considering the people who predict these things for a living all had Allen winning by a comfy margin after 95% of votes were in. - .RJ - 11-08-2006 Apoc Wrote:I don't see your name in the "I voted" so I'm pretty sure anything you say falls on deaf ears. :roll: - Mike - 11-08-2006 is jeff the only student who voted? - Apoc - 11-08-2006 A recount is mandantory if the gap is <0.5% and it's currently at 0.3% with 4 precints left. 2 in James City County 1 in Isle of Wight County 1 in Fairfax City Doesn't anyone else find it amazing that the gap is 7k votes on a basis of 2.3 million? Also, it's just plain sad that VA only had 52% voter turnout. |
