- Guess What, We Won a D+18 District!
Democratic Fairfax County Supervisor James Walkinshaw defeated Republican Stewart Whitson easily on Tuesday, with The Associated Press calling the race at 7:36 p.m. Eastern time.
The race for the seat in Virginia’s 11th Congressional District was widely expected to be won by Walkinshaw, who will replace his former boss. The late Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly, who had represented the district for over 15 years, died in May.
Not long before passing away, Connolly wrote a letter endorsing Walkinshaw to succeed him in Congress. Connolly’s campaign transferred $1.8 million to a PAC backing Walkinshaw in the primary, according to Federal Election Commission reports.
Connolly made it to the great beyond without endorsing either AOC or Jasmine Crockett to take his place on Oversight, and neither of them got the job, but he did have time to endorse the Fairfax County Supervisor, who I’m sure is going to fall right in line. But at least Democrats will have another vote in the House.
In other topics, if you haven’t paged through the disgusting, three-volume Epstein birthday book, here it is. It’s clearly a tribute to someone who everybody knew was a pedophile. For example:
Bill Clinton and George Mitchell both provided notes in the book, nothing like the image above, but it takes a real devotion to forced naivete to think that anyone who contributed to that book didn’t know about Epstein’s proclivities.
Finally, I will note that if your dishwasher isn’t draining and you’ve just moved into a newly renovated place, be sure that the “plumber” who installed it knocked out the plastic plug in the disposal covering the dishwasher drain port. Don’t ask me how I know.
