Well this morning I voted for Goldman Sachs Man. At least he'll raise the minimum wage. And isn't Chris Christie's racist stooge. Sigh. I'm actually quite surprised how much race baiting there is in the Republican lawn signs along Route 27. I don't think they're false flags. Surprised the NJ GOP is making sanctuaries the hill they'll die on. Are they expecting racism to help them in the down ballot?

All the comparisons are to final 2013 turnout, not turnout as of that time (because I don't have that information) If I post more updates I'll make sure to specify the 2013 turnout is final 2013 turnout.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Prince William seems a bit low but Falls Church looks on pace to match 2013 Prince William got hit particularly hard with the absentee ballot stick this year totalling 13k votes. Given that there were roughly 100k votes in 2013 and factoring population growth we can estimate 10% or so added onto that figure. They’re probably doing fine for turnout.

Your Boy Fancy posted:Update: since NoVA has gone as well as it has, we've pulled all phone bankers toward Petersburg. For those who haven't obsessed over the statistics as much as some of us have, Petersburg is the most hilariously Democratic locality in Virginia. The average large Democratic City ran at about a D+50 margin last year, the even more hardcore university town of Charlottesville went about D+60. Petersburg went D + 75.

This morning I sat down at my republican co-worker's desk in DC and told him that it was stupid for us to go vote 45 minutes out in Fairfax county in the rain, what are the chances either candidate wins/loses by 1 vote? Then I said I was going to the gym at lunch, and drove down picked up my parents from Vienna and we all voted

You ever been to Jamestown? One of the coolest adult vacations I ever did was, dorky enough, Colonial Williamsburg + Jamestown. It's crazy walking around the Jamestown ruins and realizing just how old it is. It's also really, really pretty in the fall. I also had a long conversation with the Print Shop Owner at Colonial Williamsburg who told me all about how the colonists ended up dividing politically during the Revolution. The really rich and the poor were generally pro-Independence while the shop owners and middle class artisans were Loyalists because without Great Britain they were pretty screwed in terms of buying/selling their goods. He seemed really excited to talk about all this stuff, I got the sense that not a lot of people visited the printing press and then actually asked a whole bunch of questions. Really interesting stuff. axeil fucked around with this message at 23:03 on Nov 7, 2017 |

Jamestown is neat too but frankly early colonists were insane. Yeah the Jamestown tour guides told us a story about how they almost definitely murdered a little girl so they could eat her  The Colonial Williamsburg guides are crazy knowledgeable too. I had another casual conversation with a woman who was able to tell me all the biographical information about who she was playing and a whole bunch of other general info about what colonial life is like. It's really impressive. Also the blacksmith/silversmith are legitimately making and selling things using 18th century techniques and they look great. They aren't just play-acting when they're at their forges and furnaces, they're making real stuff with the intent to sell it.

Right now my "office view" is out over the James River with the leaves just starting to turn red and gold, which almost makes up for being immersed in freezing water up to my wrists half the time. One of my favorite experiences from Jamestown (go to the real one, not just the fake one, you drat kids  ) is standing on a brick hearth floor waist deep in an excavation, pointing to the 250-year-old plantation house ruins a stone's throw away, and reminding the person I was talking to that to the people who lived in the house when it was built, that hearth floor was as long in the past as the Civil War is now.
