Okay, fellow Dems, listen up. In the best spirit of bipartisanship, it falls our duty to help our addled Republican friends choose who will be their candidate for Governor in November by voting in the June 14 Republican Primary. That’s right, as a Democrat you can vote in the Republican Primary. We’re having two that day, simultaneously–one for the Ds and one for the Rs. (And, no, this doesn’t threaten the Sage of the Shenandoah–Russ Potts will be on the ballot either way.) It doesn’t change your registration. You don’t have to swear to anything. Just tell the folks at your polling place you want the Republican ballot. They have to let you vote in the Republican Primary if you want to. Hey, our ticket is largely set, with Kaine and Deeds. (That middle one will sort out.) This time around, we need to be helping our Republican friends out. There will be two names in the Republican ballot for Governor–Jerry Kilgore and George Fitch. Lord, have mercy! What must we do?
