The price of admission

Today is Election Day for several states, including the Commonwealth of Virginia. All the offices up for grabs are state and local, including governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general. These positions are currently held by Republicans, who’ve done their best to return us to those halcyon days of a century ago, when certain people knew their places and did not dare to question their betters.

Governor Fleecebrains is banned from re-election due to term limits, but his lieutenant governor is running for his job and his AG is trying to repeat. I cast my ballot three weeks ago, and I understand that—at least in Fairfax County—there’s been a big turnout for early voting.

Still—I was pleased to see this reminder on the info sign on the W&OD Trail yesterday morning.

And this morning—more reminders:




Voting is what makes it all happen and it’s your ticket to a democratic government.
