Virginia Senate Win Will Curb GOP Gerrymandering in 2011
The Virginia Senate race is the last before the next Census.

Even though it is a slim majority, it's enough to stop attempts by Congressman Tom Davis and his state-level cronies to re-draw Virginia like Tom Delay redrew Texas.

3. Hi Dave, ...
Have we (Democrats) won the VA Legislature? I know that Jeanne Marie Devolites Davis has conceded to Chap Peterson! Yeahhhhh! I know that my delegate David Englin has retained his seat! Yeahhhh!

What other victories have we won? Have we won the Legislature???

4. House of Delegates - No; Senate - Yes
It'll be interesting to see what Kaine and the VA Senate propose now, to bolster chances VA will cast its 13 Electoral Votes for the Dem nominee next year.
