Today, the Post breaks out its election coverage for the races that yesterday went to the polls in Virginia. There are plenty of angles to consider but a few stories stand out. For one, it appears that Herndon voters didn’t appreciate support for immigrants, as they yesterday unseated those who backed the public day-labor center constructed there (in fact, only 3,000 folks voted yesterday, suggesting that those with particularly strong feelings on the matter were likely the ones pulling the levers).

Low turnout appears to have been the order of the day, but the Post nevertheless draws conclusions about what the elections meant to local residents. Answer: growth is key, as are property taxes. (Note, the campaigning Fenty in the photo at right had nothing to do with yesterday’s municipal elections; we just needed a politicalish photo).
