Election pledge.
Tuesday night, election gods willing, we’ll get the results of the day’s votes in Virginia’s races.

Kilgore: Do as I say, not as I do.
Some Republicans have been all huffy over Tim Kaine’s recent “Club for Growth” mailer, and it turns out to have been for good cause — the State Board of Elections found that the mailer was misleading, and fined the Kaine campaign $100, as Bob Lewis reports for the AP. So supporters of Republican Jerry Kilgore …
