Virginia Dem Primary -- who is more electable in the general election?

[Anonymous]

There isn't a ton of difference in the candidates. I care most about who will win in November. Is there a sense of which candidates are better-suited to win against the R?

Also, what's the buzz for the Arlington House of Delegates seat. I'm inclined to vote for Hope.

I am too. Hope has a better chance of negotiating the politics among Delegates. Arjay is running a high touch campaign but he is naive about his ability to "enact" his list of promises. I am hopeful Hope can get Arlington home rule through on another try so we can have Board members representing neighborhoods.

Jeff, the Virginia primary is state-wide. It looks like there's not much interest in responding, so no harm no foul re putting this in metro DC politics, but we are voting for Attorney General and Lt Governor positions.
