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...

too conservative: House of Delegates Q2 Reports

June 2, 2009
This is actually half of Q2, due to the 15-day requirement before the June 9 primary, so the dates covered are between April 1 and May 27, 2009. Like last time, I?ve included races in Fairfax, Alexandria, Arlington, Loudoun, and PWC. Much, much more below the fold. Total raised is taken from total receipts, which includes contributions, in-kind, and loans. Candidate: Q2 Raised  | Cash on Hand | # of Individual Donors Fairfax Districts: HD 34 Margi Vanderhye (i): $61K | $9...

Renaissance Ruminations: Feder?s Gone, and Hope Springs Eternal?

April 20, 2009
?Just a taste of something different, perking up a boring day?? The strains of Jimmy Buffett?s ?Somewhere Over China? were drifting through the air as something new and something old came across my desk to complement news from Va-10 that Mike Turner was bailing on his delegate campaign against Joe May.  Perhaps Mr. Turner thinks it better to fade away rather than burnout. On the other hand, the flaming meteor that teased and tantalized Va-10 Democrats has burned out.  Judy Feder, the George...

too conservative: House of Delegates Q1 Round-Up

April 16, 2009
Here are the House of Delegate numbers, fresh from VPAP. I?ve included all the races in Fairfax, Loudoun, PWC, Stafford, and most in Alexandria and Arlington. Much, much more below the fold. Total raised is taken from total receipts, which includes contributions, in-kind, and loans. Candidate: Q1 Money Raised  | Cash on Hand | # of Individual Donors Fairfax Districts: HD 34 Margi Vanderhye (i): $50K | $52K | 157 Barbara Comstock : $133K | $118K | 321 Very impressive ...

too conservative: Turner?s Trainwreck

April 16, 2009
Democrat Mike Turner has quit his proposed campaign to challenge Delegate Joe May, as reported by the WaPo .  He whines about poor fundraising, which he also did during his unsuccessful attempt at the Dem nomination to be their sacrificial lamb before Frank Wolf.  The Post also reports that Turner failed to file his campaign finance report for the first quarter.  Is he dropping out because he posted anemic fundraising totals, or are there other campaign finance problems?  Did he finally realize...
