The Shad Plank: Va. Gov: GOP snags top billing on the November ballot...

June 26, 2009
The lottery at the State Board of Elections swung to the Republicans this week, when the GOP won top billing on the November ballots. During a Thursday meeting in Richmond the Republican ticket was pulled out of the bowl first - which gives GOP hopefuls running for the House of Delegates top billing too. In the grand scheme of things, name placement probably doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot in the campaign for the governor's office - because the race between Republican Bob McDonnell an...

WeeklyLender.com Payday Loans: Payday Loan History

June 24, 2009
The June 16 letter critical of Del. Glenn Oder , saying he ?has finally addressed the issue? of payday lender abuses, really misses the mark. HB940 passed in 2002 on a bipartisan vote of 73 to 27 and was signed by a Democratic governor. I know; I was the patron of that bill. I sponsored it reluctantly and then only after a year of study and another year waiting for federal regulators to curb unsavory practices of out-of-state banks ?renting? charters to storefront operations in Virginia . Th...

Waldo Jaquith: The legislature?s most prolific copatrons.

June 10, 2009
The more time that I spend mapping the social relationships of legislators via their copatroning habits, the more fascinated that I am by this mechanism of exploring the General Assembly. It really is a powerful tool. (To see one of the ways I?m using it on Richmond Sunlight now, check out HB1721 , SB1436 , or HB2482 , where you can see a graph indicating the average partisan position of each bill?s cosponsors.) Here?s a less thoughtful usage of this data, but no less interesting: a listi...
