The Virginia Governors Race?

Alright so this is what's goin' down right now. Republican Robert F. McDonnell holds a seven-point lead over Democrat R. Creigh Deed, 50% to 43%. This was based on a survey held on October 12. The winner will most likely, and i say, be McDonnell. Overall i think he will win because americans are looking for some counter balance with a democratic president. He was bombarded for some social views he showed in his college paper that he wrote in 1989, but come on, that will pass because it was yearrssss ago. Earlier in my blogs, the biggest problem facing virginia was the transportation and McDonnell proposed to fix that problem mainly. This is a big help, especially when Deeds stumbled during the debate and people came to the conclusion that he would raise taxes to fix the transportation problem. Overall, six percent of the vote has not been counted yet in my percentages in the first sentence, but still, those wont help Deeds. You can give the deed of ownership of governors office to McDonnell, Deeds.

  1. I agree with you Austin that people are looking for something different now that we have Obama as our president. With America's tough times what with the economy, war, health care, etc, people may be getting scared and want to change parties. Because of the economy and McDonnell saying he won't raise taxes, I believe more people might choose him over Deed right now.

  2. I agree with what is said here. Both candidates believe in the same thing. ANd have about the same standards. The race is so close right now and it could go either way.
