Charlottesville needs Dave Norris’ experience on Council.

A governing body benefits from new energy and fresh ideas. The Daily Progress is endorsing write-in candidate Andrew Williams for City Council.

Mandated by law, planned by intergovernmental committee and implemented with the goal of helping troubled learners and learners with trouble, the Piedmont Regional Education Program — PREP — has gone from 26 preschoolers in 1975 to 920 students in kindergarten through 12th grade.

We need to elect Rodney Thomas to the Rio seat on the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors on Nov. 3.

I am impressed with David Slutzky’s diligence and creativity in investigating an idea that might preserve rural lands, fund county services and lower our taxes.

Let’s get real and vote for the real leader, Cynthia Neff.

For many years, we have been following Steve Shannon’s commitment to bettering the lives of Virginia’s citizens.

When the issue came up, Rob Bell clearly stated he does not support tax increases.

With all the political talk, I want to tell about a different side of Rob Bell that I know.

The 57th District is fortunate to have David Toscano as its delegate.

The Daily Progress recommends that voters send Rob Bell back to Richmond.

If we continue to ignore our transportation infrastructure as we have been doing for the past decade, it will be felt by the entire commonwealth.

If elections were determined by “silver tongued oration” or “handsome good look,” it’s doubtful Abraham Lincoln would have ever become president.

Ken Cuccinelli, candidate for attorney general, has a strong record of working for public safety and of defending our constitutional rights.

I, like a lot of other people, was outraged by the mailing about Del. Rob Bell. Outraged that Del. Bell voted the way he did.

Mark Fried has been quoted as saying of David Slutzky, “He is the brightest, best informed and most knowledgeable person running for a board seat.” I agree.

But if this country truly wants high-speed rail, we’re going to have to get serious about the effort. Eight billion dollars won’t get us there.

The intent of mymail piece was to point out that very few voters are actually aware of how Rob Bell votes in Richmond.

David Slutzky’s plan to eliminate land use tax is not free choice at all for the current landowner, but is government coercion at its worst.

David Slutzky is certainly self-assured and he challenges convention. He is also by far the more capable of the candidates running for Rio District.

The timing of Bob McDonnell’s regret should be sounding alarm bells off in the minds of working women, feminists and homosexuals.

Paul Best is the “best” choice for Charlottesville sheriff.

The story of Sgt. David Budwah baffles the mind.

James Madison University’s leveling of charges against two student journalists raises troubling concerns over press freedom.

Closing the Virginia gun show loophole is a fine idea. Problem is, none of proponents are addressing the other side’s concerns about how this will be done.

Citizens of the 58th District are privileged that Cynthia Neff is running for Rob Bell’s seat in the House of Delegates.

Two issues from last spring describe the challenges that will await the net governor Virginia: federal stimulus mondy and federal education money.

When the economy gets weird, the weird turn pro and the truly weird flock straight to the Internet.

We don’t have to look at what they say, but can just look at their records.

I’m basing my vote on this issue because the Meadowcreek Parkway is a disaster for Charlottesville.
