Great battle between Justin and Nick. The kid from Goochland, Va wins in the end. Good outing by Verlander

Not sure what my Saturday plans are yet. And there is an oyster festival nearby...

Pennsylvania has always had the dynamics of Appalachia with the exception of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. Once you get outside the metropolitan areas it’s solid red

May have to find some ODU tickets

Which is exactly most Republican legislatures prohibit early counting of absentee ballots. To stir controversy and discontent.

Probably true. He's also has lost all support he may have had from Va,MD and DC for help to fund a stadium complex. The current facility is about to fall down around him.

What’s scary here is that voters evidently had no clue about candidates in their district. All one had to do is google your zip code or address to find what district you live in. If the names don’t match there is something fishy going on

I'm so doing this next year (pending spousal approval)

Good read from the Bullwerk... https://www.thebulwark.com/if-walker-then-fetterman/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

It was debated last week on Nextdoor (my first mistake). Doing a trunk or treat Halloween night. I was amused. We're in a new portion of the community, mostly empty nesters and few kids. I don't expect much. That said I did try to talk my wife into letting me set up a table in the driveway with candy bars for kids and wine pours for accompanying adults. She shot that down fairly quickly

So if the Conservative Christian Right is so concerned about Mexican Drug Lords moving into our neighborhoods and handing out illegal drugs disguised as Mars bars why were the so against an HOA proposal to hold a Trunk or Treat at the community center in our neighborhood, arguing instead that their kids need to go door to door. Why is the so called Christian Right even celebrating a pagan holiday?

Wish she was my congresscritter instead of some two bit insurance salesman who probably never set foot in our neck of the woods unless he was on his way to the Outer Banks.

Compared to the other party candidates for Gov he was reasonable. It also helped that they rigged the nominating system in his favor. The fact that he refused to repudiate Trump and has spent a lot of time with Rafael Cruz was telling for anyone who follows that stuff.

BTW what has the current Republican Party proposed (or done for that matter) to solve the “crime problem” or even the “inflation problem” besides blaming Democrats

Wouldn't Trump back on Twitter violate whatever agreement he has with Truth Social. Not that ever stopped him before. I'm not sure it would make much difference since his BS posts get posted on Twitter anyway.
