Is Democracy Worth Getting Up Early?

Yes, yes it is. *g*

Got to the polling place ten minutes after it opened, and I was the 61st person to vote! Usually I'm around 14th, but 61st, that's just... amazing. That kind of turn out's never even happened in a presidential election. Heh, maybe if it had, Virginia wouldn't be labeled as a red state.

Anyway, we've had such a good run under Mark Warner, here's hoping we get four more years with a Democrat at the helm. *crosses fingers and toes*

...So Happy...

Democrat Tim Kaine has won the Virginia Governor's race. With 90% of the vote counted, Kaine leads Republican Jerry Kilgore by about 90,000 votes.
