Another Body Blow For Virginia Baseball


It was election day in Northern Virginia yesterday, and in Arlington County, voters resoundingly returned Walter Ferguson and Walter Tejada to the County Board, despite heavy support given to opposition candidates by individuals in favor of building a stadium for the Montreal Expos in Washington, D.C.

Just another of the public death throes for baseball in the Washington Metropolitan Area.

It actually felt almost like a one issue election. My Arlington co-workers and I all made sure to go vote solely so we could vote for the people who would keep the stadium out. It's quite a relief, actually, since I live across the street from one of the proposed sites.
