VA election reminders

For Virginia voters considering their delegate choices...

• From 2011: One Virginia Delegate wants to redirect state money from bike sharing. "Del. Jim LeMunyon, R-Fairfax, proposed shifting some of money set aside for bike-sharing programs to projects he argues would do more to reduce congestion, such as widening Interstate 66 and building a ramp from I-66 to East Falls Church Metro to encourage Metro use." 
• From 2012: Virginia Del. Jim Lemunyon says that "localities in Northern Virginia support using transportation funds for the Columbia Pike trolley, bike paths and sidewalks where safety is not an issue. Such projects do nearly nothing to improve regional mobility."
• From 2013: last week Virginia House Delegate Jim LeMunyon (R-Farifax) said that "funding for bus shelters, pedestrian bridge and lighting on a trail. That’s not why I voted to raise taxes."
• From 2014: HB320/Don’t Pass Vehicles Stopped at a Crosswalk was tabled by a 12-10 vote, with 3 R’s Rust, Minchew, & LeMunyon joining the 7 D’s in voting AGAINST Tabling.
• Who did and didn't support the 3 foot law.
• "NoVa Delegates Barbara Comstock, Timothy Hugo and Joe May all voted against the [3 foot passing] law in committee"

Almost want to move from Arlington to Fairfax to vote against C*mstock. Almost.

LeMunyon is great for his incredulousness that widening highways forever isn't that cost effective and that's why his transportation bills struggle.

Also, there is a ramp from 66 to get to east falls church. Exit 69, just go straight until it's time to turn into the parking lot.
