Although I don't really have a feeling one way or another about the casino referendum, it feels great having voted in Maryland for Question 4 and Question 6.

So proud.

Only good news for me in VA is the passage of the eminent domain admendment (although i dont think it went nearly far enough). Also my swing vote helped propell my girl Kristen Larson to my school board:


4th District
Kristen N. Larson, a former board member of the state's first charter elementary school, emerged from the five-way race to fill the seat vacated by Adria Graham-Scott.
Larson was the top vote-getter from a field that included a former Richmond Public Schools superintendent and a communications specialist with extensive volunteer experience in city schools.
"I feel like the parents and the community in the 4th District has really gotten behind me," Larson said. "I appreciate all the support, and I'm looking forward to working with the rest of the newly elected School Board candidates to implement real change for the children of our city."
