“I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in. ” At the end of the day, the house was still standing and much of the huffing and puffing seemed like idle threat.
Apparently the angry voter scene snarled a little but made little impact on primaries yesterday. Voter turnout was low and incumbents often won.
Most winners ended up being mainstream candidates. In Hernon, Democrats grabbed up all but 2 of the seats.
In the City of Manassas, the following happened:
Marc Aveni – 1230 (33.0%)
Andy Harrover – 1225 (32.9%)
Steve Randolph – 1209 (32.4%)
That is a pretty even vote. No surprises there.
Throw the bums out just didn’t happen.
