Voter turnout is critical for us here! We can do this!
It ain't over till it's over. I REALLY REALLY want Mark Herring to be the next Attorney General.
This is the alternative:
Really, here is Obenshain's bill:
http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?091+ful+SB962+pdf <--- read it and vote.
When a fetal death occurs without medical attendance upon the mother at or after the delivery or abortion, the mother or someone acting on her behalf shall, within 24 hours, report the fetal death, location of the remains, and identity of the mother to the local or state police or sheriff's department of the city or county where the fetal death occurred. No one shall remove, destroy, or otherwise dispose of any remains without the express authorization of law-enforcement officials or the medical examiner. Any person violating the provisions of this subsection shall be guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor.
Pass this on far and wide!
We're down to the final stretch, I want to see a top three sweep. I want to see a few more delegates with a (D) after here name elected as well. Voter turnout is so very critical.
GOTV!

(57,319 posts)8. I will be voting before I go in to work.
Unless, of course, my ID is rejected.
I saw on TV the other night that a turnout of maybe 30% of eligible voters is expected. People certainly take that right for granted.
This is a big one. The outcome will affect me personally. I am voting as if my future depends on it, because it does.
Best wishes to all. Do your duty.

Stop trying to suppress your vote, mahatmakanejeeves.
That 30% number you saw came from the Cucinelli campaign BTW. No really, it did. http://www.politico.com/story/2013/11/ken-cuccinelli-virginia-election-2013-99287.html
But this was Virginia Republican Party Chairman Pat Mullinss version of the power of positive thinking in an interview this weekend. The path for star-crossed GOP gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli, Mullins said, looks like this: If turnout is in the 30s, the low 30s, were gonna win. If it gets higher up in Fairfax [in Democratic-leaning Northern Virginia], say like 40, its likely we wont. I dont think its going to hit 40 anywhere. Im looking at 32.
They are trying to suppress the vote. Anyone who watches politics knows this. You HAVE to know this as well. Don;t fall for that game play.
We can do this.
Don't believe the GOP talking points. I know you are going to vote, but buck up!
GOTV!!!
