Prepared Meals Tax Gets Bagged

Mark Fisher, who blogs for The Post at Raw Fisher, has his own analysis as to why Loudouners unequivocally shot down - by a 70 percent vote - the meals tax referendum.

He writes: "…given the time-stressed lifestyle of so many Loudoun families, anything that promised to make more difficult or expensive that daily act of putting food on the table in time to fend off evening surliness from one or another family member was just a bad idea."

The Dulles and Ashburn school bond referendums passed by slim margins, and both bloggers and their commenters seem to agree that the electorate's half-and-half decision sent a strong message to the school board. Blogger HoodaThunk? writes: "That can't be a comfy margin from the school board's perspective. I would suggest that their 'but, it's for the children' response to every question about their meteoric budget increases is starting to wear very thin."

Loudoun, Virginia and the Country Elect First African-American President

Members of Loudoun's black community share their personal reactions to Obama's historic win in Eileen A. Carlton's Loudoun Times Mirror article. Middleburg's Rev. Reginald Early, 47, the president of Loudoun's NAACP chapter told Carlton: "I am just ecstatic... I'm just glad to be alive at this point in time in American history, to be a part of it."

And Terri Randolph, 33, of Leesburg said, "The fact that he is a black is great, but the important thing is to look past that. Look at his intelligence, his integrity, his demeanor, the way he carries himself no matter what. That's what you want in a president, and that's what you get."
