Main article: History of Slovenia
As it is believed the Slavic ancestors of the present-day Slovenians settled in the area in the 6th century. In the 7th century the Slavic Duchy of Carantania, the first Slovenian state and one of the first Slavic, was formed. In 745, Karantania loses its independence and becomes a tantamount part of the Frankish empire, many Slavs are gradually converted to Christianity.
Around 1000, the Freising manuscripts are written, representing the first written document in Slovenian and the first ever Slavic dialect written in Latin script. During the 14th century, most of Slovenia's regions pass to the possession of the Habsburgs, which later form the Austro-Hungarian Empire, with Slovenians inhabiting all or most of the provinces of Carniola, Gorizia, and Gradisca, and parts of the provinces of Istria and Styria.
In 1848 a strong programme for the United Slovenia appeared in the so called of Spring of nations within Austria-Hungary.
With the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy in 1918, the Slovenians join the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, later in 1929 renamed to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. After Yugoslavia was re-created at the end of World War II, Slovenia joined the Federal Peoples' Republic of Yugoslavia, officially declared on November 29 1945. Present-day Slovenia was formed on June 25, 1991 with its independence from the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Slovenia will join both the European Union and NATO in 2004.

Main article: Politics of Slovenia
The Slovenian head of state is the president, who is elected by popular vote every 5 years. In his task as head of the executive branch, the president is aided by the prime minister and the council of ministers or cabinet, which are elected by parliament.
The bicameral Slovenian parliament consists of the National Assembly or Državni zbor, and the Državni svet or National Council. The National Assembly has 90 seats, which are partially filled with directly elected representatives, and partially with proportinally elected representatives. The National Council has 22 seats, and is made up of representatives of social, economic, professional and local interest groups. Parliamentary elections are held every four years.

Main article: Geography of Slovenia
Four major European geographic regions meet in Slovenia: the Alps, the Dinaric area, the Pannonian plain and the Mediterranean. Slovenia's highest peak is Mt. Triglav (2864 m); the country's average height above the sea level is 557 m. Around one half of the country (10,124 km²) is covered by forests; this makes Slovenia the third most forested country in Europe, right after Finland and Sweden. Remnants of primeval forests are still to be found, the largest in the Kočevje area. Grassland covers 5593 km² of the country and fields and gardens 2471 km². There are also 363 km² of orchards and 216 km² of vineyards.
Its climate is Mediterranean on the coast, Alpine in the mountains and continental with mild to hot summers and cold winters in the plateaus and valleys to the east. The average temperatures are -2�C in January and 21�C in July. The average rainfall is 1000 mm for the coast, up to 3500 mm for the Alps, 800 mm for south east and 1400 mm for central Slovenia.

Main article: Economy of Slovenia
Slovenia continues to enjoy the highest GDP per capita of the transitioning economies of the region. The country is experiencing an increased, yet manageable, rate of inflation and anticipates increased GDP growth during the year 2000 as growth accelerates in the EU, Slovenia's leading export market. The country is on a sound economic footing. However, much work remains to be done in the areas of privatisation and capital market reform.
During 2000, privatisations were seen in the banking, telecommunications, and public utility sectors. Restrictions on foreign investment are slowly being dismantled, and foreign direct investment (FDI) is expected to increase over the next two years. Slovenia can be considered one of the economic front-runners of the countries that will join the European Union in 2004.
Main article: Demographics of Slovenia
Slovenia's ethnic groups represent Slovenians (89%), Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks and other nationalities of the former Yugoslavia (10%) and the ethnic Hungarian and Italian minorities (0.5%). Life expectancy in 2000 was 71.80 years for men and 79.50 years for women.
With 95 inhabitants per km², Slovenia ranks low among the European countries (compare with 320/km² for the Netherlands or 195/km² for Italy). Approximately 50% of the total population lives in urban areas, the rest in rural.
The official language is Slovenian, which is a member of the South Slavic language group. Hungarian and Italian enjoy the status of official language in the nationally mixed regions along the Hungarian and Italian border.
Main article: Culture of Slovenia
Slovenia's learned men include physicist Jožef Stefan and linguist Franc Miklošič. See List of Slovenians.
Slovenia is a homeland of numerous musicians and composers, including Renaissance composer Jacobus Gallus and more contemporary ones like Slavko Avsenik and Laibach.

We'll be at Minicon April 10-12, and I hope you can join us! Here's what I'll be up to--although, as always, feel free to approach me in the halls, dealer's room, or where-ever if you want to chat or want me to sign something. We're really looking forward to the weekend, and your participation will make it that much better!
Note: it's a light schedule, since I'm still recovering from my surgery--but I'm doing pretty well these days, and hope to be around and available most of the time.
What is Steampunk: a literary movement, an attitude, or merely fashion statement? Perhaps there is something about the buoyant spirit of the late 19th century that speaks to our feelings about technology today.
Our author Guest of Honor talks about his life and his work. After the interview there will be a book signing in the same space and a chance to chat with Karl one on one.
I hope you enjoy the convention, we're glad to have you there.
And the latest news is being posted to the Minicon Livejournal: http://minicon.livejournal.com/ I'm sure people will post stuff during the con there and on the Minicon Facebook page too. And of course there's info on the website. We just added a PDF of the pocket program today (which includes schedule grid, map, hours, and other useful info).


I have a deep respect for the environment and love working in natural environments. The DNA of a space or place is for me the most important thing; – whether it is understanding what exists or what is going to be created. I spend time with my clients to understand and interpret their vision.
I work both with recreating and re-imagining existing spaces as well as working on conceptualising projects from start to finish.I work with the budget agreed with the client and within agreed time parameters on total completion of building work and cleanup of site.
I operate as an individual. I work closely with my clients and share my vision with them more through look and feel and discussion rather than computer generated images. These can be produced on request at an additional cost as they will be outsourced.
When it comes to installation, I like to work with teams on the property to save costs and get the buy in and involvement on the entire operational team. Alternatively I have a team of subcontracted installers with whom I work and complete the installation.
The breakdown of cost is a percentage of the total payable on completion of each stage as per the outline above. The percentage depends on the scope of works and the particulars of each project.
My work experience ranges from from Country Houses, City Boutique hotels, Restaurants, Spas, Retail stores and Lodges across Africa.

The army wives were stationed in Landings Run, a Mount Pleasant neighborhood, this past January. Now in its sixth season, "Army Wives" is filmed in the Charleston area, and, while many scenes are shot on a soundstage downtown, they often go on location to lend authenticity to the drama. Over the last five seasons, Charleston and its environs have been featured as a backdrop for the friendships and struggles of military life.
Word spread in December 2011 as the production staff prepared to shoot season six partially on location. The Locations Department, headed by Stephen Yetman, is responsible for procuring and managing the needs for filming each episode. Bob Basha, a local photographer who works with the "Army Wives" crew, is charged with finding potential properties. He is given the criteria for potential houses and scouts a dozen or more possibilities, taking pictures of exteriors and interiors. Ultimately, the producers narrow the choices down to two or three before making a final decision.
In mid-December, Basha was searching for a home in a middle-class neighborhood and contacted me to see if I was interested. He thought my neighborhood, Landings Run, might fit the bill. He was looking for a house that seemed affordable for a military family; the requirements included "a garage with a windowed door, two stories and vaulted ceilings," plus enough space for the cast and crew.
Rieck arrived home to find we had blocked her driveway, but when we explained why we were there, she was more than willing to have her house included as a prospect. And though it was initially "an unlikely choice," the Rieck house ended up being chosen.
The "Army Wives" crew notified nearby residents of the preparation and shooting schedule and made every effort to impact the neighborhood as little as possible. A base camp for large trucks and other vehicles was established at Seacoast Church on Long Point Road. Quite a few vehicles were parked on Canton Square and Landings Run, adding to the general excitement.
Robert Basha, location assistant, explained that several scenes for two episodes would be filmed during the three-day shoot. His job is to manage the logistics of preparing the set, down to the most minor details. While he could not disclose specifics of the plot or cast involved, he said it was essential to the story line to have the house's garage door replaced.
Rieck and her family – husband John and daughters Eva and Noah – were required to move out of their home for about 10 days total. As soon as they vacated, the Locations Department began transforming the home to suit its needs. The Riecks' living room furniture was removed and replaced with props. Alterations were made as needed, including installing the new garage door. Once filming was complete, the crew would restore everything back to its original state, but the Riecks had the option to keep structural changes like the newly installed door.
The Riecks – and nearby homeowners who would be impacted by the activity – were paid a fee for the use of their home. "Army Wives" also normally pays for accommodations while residents are displaced, but this was not an issue for the Rieck family.
"My parents have a town house in Dunes West, and we stayed there for about 10 days," Hillary Rieck explained.
From a distance, it was easy to see activity as exterior shots were filmed. Naturally, moms with kids in tow strolled around Canton Square, hoping to catch a peek of the action.
Once the serious work was done, the location crew broke down the set and moved on quickly. In the world of television production, time is indeed money and the schedule is paramount.
L ife at Fort Marshall takes a dramatic turn as season six of "Army Wives" begins on the Lifetime Television network. Starring Catherine Bell and Kim Delaney, this prime time series has gained an extensive following, especially in the Charleston area.
All in all, pretty good show – but a few of the story thread – the ones not really suitable for children or careful adults – should be scuttled.


41 tracks on EMI have been recommended.
A song with style, with passion, with character, that's Wicked Game... Don't miss the chance to listen to it... -a.
16 Jul 04 ·37piecesflair: One of my favorite songs of all time.
This song is one I remember enjoying greatly as soon as I heard it shortly after its release as a single. To me it encapsulated perfectly the angst and frustration I often felt at that time. It did this as much through its sophisticated musical content and texture as through the lyrics. Listening to it now, it's as good an example as any of how different synth sounds go in and out of fashion. Hollis gives a typically intense vocal performance, and there are subtle hints in some of the instrumental lines of the more jazzy direction the band would later take. Highly recommended - don't miss this one. Oh, sorry - wrong site. Thought I saw the word Ebay somewhere.
An addictive and perfect track, which fuses several of my obsessions (vocal groups, Ennio Morricone-style chord sequences, Brazilian pop) with incredible power. The song is a Brazilian standard, written by Baden Powell, but this version is very different to any other I've heard. This recording opens feverishly with brass and strings, maintaining a doomy and very serious mood throughout. All the same, it manages to be extremely groovy, with rock drums and a twangy guitar accompanying the strings and harmonizing vocals. The arrangement is quite brilliant and never sounds crowded, with a stark feel produced by the different parts dropping in and out. The part of the track which to me is pure genius is the instrumental break in the middle, which sounds like it's excerpted from one of the coolest of Morricone's late 60s B-movie soundtracks - honey smooth strings, blended with some excellent drums and a cool trumpet part. The vocals are also rather gripping - always very serious sounding, and often wordlessly chanting the melody.
23 Feb 04 ·Galt: You should check out the 1971 Odeon album 'So Vou Criar Galinha': 'Chuva de verao' starts with the sound of rainfall (always a winner) and 'Com a lembran�a apenas' has one of those amazing Brazilian melodies you just can't get out of your head.
This sounds like it should be a generic bossa nova cash-in film song, but instead, it's strangely haunting and gripping to my ears. While it's a sweetly orchestrated piece (a bossa nova guitar and beat, a flute melody, and a Stan Getz-esque tenor sax, backed by a subdued orchestra) I feel as if there's something menacing just beneath the surface. However, it's so subtle, this could be in my head. It's taken from the 'The Glass Bottom Boat'; maybe I have to see the movie and decide.

Q: java : Elasticsearch listing redundant values I've been used to elasticsearch for quite a long time now, but the solution now I'm trying to find out is to list accurate values for a given a search string.
The code which I've written now in java :
BoolQueryBuilder queryBuiler = new BoolQueryBuilder();
            queryBuiler.must(new QueryStringQueryBuilder("tagName : *salary march*"));

SearchResponse response = esclient.prepareSearch(index).setTypes(type)
                    .setQuery(queryBuiler)
                    .execute().actionGet();

SearchHit[] hits = response.getHits().getHits();
                    for (SearchHit hit : hits) {
                    Map map = hit.getSource();
                    System.out.println((String) map.get("tagName"));
                    list.add((String) map.get("tagName"));
                }

                list = list.stream().distinct().collect(Collectors.toList());

                for(int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++){
                System.out.println(list.get(i));
                }

Using this code, if search for a search string say "salary march", I want the solution for the search to be like "salary slip march 2018"
but the actual result for "salary march" lists everything in the index related to "salary".
salary slip march
salary slip april
SALARY SLIP NOVEMBER
NEW SALARY SLIP

Is it possible for a partial word search with accurate match for all the search string mentioned? That is if I search for "salary march" then I want the result to contain only "salary slip march".
Would greatly appreciate your help and thanks in advance.

A: What is heppening is that you are using queryStringQuery

*

*This will first split the query and then search the generated tokens. and default operator which is OR
So you are getting documents which either match with salary OR march.
Here is the solution to it.
        BoolQueryBuilder queryBuiler = new BoolQueryBuilder();
        queryBuiler.must(new QueryStringQueryBuilder("tagName : *salary march*").defaultOperator(Operator.AND));

SearchResponse response = esclient.prepareSearch(index).setTypes(type)
                .setQuery(queryBuiler)
                .execute().actionGet();

SearchHit[] hits = response.getHits().getHits();
                for (SearchHit hit : hits) {
                Map map = hit.getSource();
                System.out.println((String) map.get("tagName"));
                list.add((String) map.get("tagName"));
            }

            list = list.stream().distinct().collect(Collectors.toList());

            for(int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++){
            System.out.println(list.get(i));
            }
    }

Moreover i thing you are not getting the basic concept of elastic search.
Query is searched upon terms indexed during ingestion.
And i think analyzer which is being applied to your this field is standard which would generate tokens

*

*salary

*slip

*march

And searching would occur on this and not on actual content which you indexed.
So no need to use wildcard query.

A: You can try adding an AND condition in the query_string:
GET string/string/_search
{
  "query": {
    "query_string": {
      "default_field": "tagName",
      "query": "salary AND march"
    }
  }
}

It returns only "salary slip march" in your result string, because it is the only string containing both salary and march.
In Java:
new QueryStringQueryBuilder("tagName : salary AND march")

JASON ANDERSON BACK ON TOP AT OAKLAND SUPERCROSS
Oakland,California (January 15,2022)-Monster Energy Kawasaki's Jason Anderson had an emotional return to the top of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross podium after 47 races without a win for the 2018 champ. Red Bull KTM's Aaron Plessinger grabbed his best 450SX Class finish with a strong second place result in front of a crowd of 42,918 that encircled the track inside RingCentral Coliseum. Repeating his third place finish from the opening round, Troy Lee Designs Red Bull GASGAS Factory Racing's Justin Barcia took third on the night and captured the points lead after two rounds of the 17-round series. In the Western Regional 250SX Class, Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha's Christian Craig followed up his opening round win with his first back-to-back Supercross victories.
Monster Energy Kawasaki's Adam Cianciarulo grabbed the Holeshot and held the lead early ahead of a stacked field on the loose and fast Oakland track. Still recovering from a pre-season shoulder injury, Cianciarulo stayed up front for the first four minutes of the 20-minute plus one lap race before eventually dropping back to finish twelfth. It was teammate Jason Anderson, in only his second race on the Kawasaki, who took over the front spot and was never challenged for it. The victory was Anderson's first win since his championship season in 2018.
Aaron Plessinger and Justin Barcia both started outside the top five but charged forward. Just past the five minute mark Plessinger took over second. Before the race's midpoint Barcia advanced into third. The two riders would stay close but never challenge one another for a position change. Monster Energy Star Racing Yamaha's Eli Tomac, the 2020 champion, steadily recovered from a mid-pack start. He reached fourth place with just over nine minutes on the clock but was not able to close in to make an attack on Barcia for a podium spot.
Red Bull KTM's Cooper Webb was following a second place finish at the opening round but the defending champion was only able to fight up to seventh after a slow start. Opening round winner Team Honda HRC's Ken Roczen started well but got shuffled back outside of the top five. Three and a half minutes into the race the Honda rider got out of shape in the whoops and crashed hard into a berm. Roczen would remount slowly and eventually finish thirteenth.
Christian Craig looked flawless on the challenging Oakland track. The second win in two rounds plants Craig solidly in the points lead in the 250SX Class. Photo Credit: Feld Entertainment, Inc.
In Western Regional 250SX Class racing, Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Jo Shimoda nabbed the Holeshot with Christian Craig quickly on his rear fender and applying early pressure. Two minutes into the 15-minute plus one lap race, Shimoda stalled the bike and Craig slipped past. Two more minutes into the race Shimoda crashed hard in the whoops and dropped back to eventually finish in seventh. Team Honda HRC's Hunter Lawrence steadily moved through the pack to earn second place. Monster Energy Pro Circuit Kawasaki's Seth Hammaker took another 2022 podium finish with third.
The series drops the gate again on Saturday night inside Petco Park in San Diego, California for Round 3 of the 17-round 450SX Class series and 9-round Western Regional 250SX Class racing. The all-day experience kicks off with FanFest in the pits and great racing after the sun goes down.

Modernist Cuisine Volume 5: Plated-Dish Recipes
Patrise Shuttlesworth
| Pot Luck |
Patrise Shuttlesworth | March 26, 2012 | 9:00am
We have been on a very modern journey over the past few weeks. We have explored food history and fundamentals in Volume 1, techniques and equipment in Volume 2, animals and plants in Volume 3, and very modern ingredients and preparations in Volume 4. We wind this series up with Volumes 5 & 6; Plated-Dish Recipes and the Kitchen Manual.
The recipes you'll find in Volume 5: Plated-Dish Recipes are quite different from those you see in most cookbooks. The point of Modernist Cuisine is to look at cooking from new angles, with a distinct interest in subjects not commonly covered in culinary books. So it stands to reason that the recipes are somewhat different. The goal is to break down recipes in such a way that the reader better understands not just the what (ingredients) and the how (methods), but also the why.
To accomplish that, MC needed a new format for presenting recipes. In Volume 5, the recipes are broken into chapters: Tender Cuts, Tough Cuts, Poultry, Fish, Shellfish, Eggs, Starches and Fruits and Vegetables. Think of MC as a textbook, with recipes used in the way that other textbooks might use example problems or case studies. The compact, modular form in which recipes are presented makes them a broader resource for instruction and inspiration. They're meant to help the reader both understand the practical applications of culinary principles and visualize how they might apply those principles in other contexts.
"You might be surprised to learn that although many people equate Modernist cooking with something akin to laboratory science, the majority of recipes can be made with tools available in most standard kitchens. Even the recipes that involve sous vide techniques can be made without specialized gadgets; you can just use a simple pot on the stove and a thermometer. On the other end of the spectrum are the recipes that do require a centrifuge, combi oven, freeze dryer, or other specialized tool."
In volumes 1-5, you'll find a huge variety of recipes and foods. Although the authors are telling the story of Modernist cuisine, their recipes are not limited to cutting-edge dishes. Instead, they cover everything from American regional barbecue to innovative flavored gels. The point is not to tout modern approaches or science for its own sake but to illustrate how the principles of Modernist cooking can, and should, be applied across a wide range of recipes.
Almost like a bonus volume, Volume 6: Kitchen Manual is a spiral-bound edition, which reprints recipes and reference tables from the major volumes on water-resistant paper for use while cooking.
Author Nathan Myhrvold says, MC is nothing to be afraid of. Most of the tools in the typical home kitchen once were technological breakthroughs, and many traditional ingredients, including baking powder and baking soda, are no less synthetic than certain staples of the modernist kitchen, such as the calcium salts in gelling ingredients. Myhrvold hopes the ultimate legacy of the book is to help some of the new methods trickle down into broader use.
Myhrvold said in a recent interview, "I didn't believe it made sense to tell part of the story. It seemed to me there was a huge value in having all of this material all in one big work, all cross-referenced, so that, sure, if you want to do a recipe, you can just do a recipe. But if you care about why something happens, you can figure that out, and if you want to know the why behind the why, by God we can point you at that too."
And while Modernist Cuisine remains one of the most expensive "cookbooks" ever printed, Nathan thinks it's important to remember, "Modernist Cuisine costs less per pound than Parmigiano Reggiano." So grab a chunk of parm and Volume 1 and settle in for the culinary read of your life.

Over a year ago now, I posted a Poetry Thursday poem entitled, "How to Get a Girlfriend." So go here to read it before you read the rest of this post.
Back in March, I was doing my poetry unit with one of my classes. That particular poem was very popular with one of my classes. The class was all boys except for one girl and they were very interested in this topic. My other students saw a copy lying on the floor and they were suddenly upset that they were not also getting this good advice! I had to give out so many copies that I ran out.
So later in the month, I finally remembered to make more. One of my student, L, was from Iraq. He came here knowing literally NO English and struggled for the vast majority of the year. So by the time March rolled around, he knew a little English but not that much.
Look at that? A complete sentence! He couldn't even read the poem! But such is the middle school boy's obsession with girls!


Childish Gambino is essentially a bargain bin Kanye…something you would find in a bin at Big Lots (Odd Lots) with knock-off Kindles and straight to DVD movies with Eugene Levy cameos. His voice identical, his delivery identical, but the substance and swag isn't there. Childish Gambino is the most apocalyptically self-congratulatory rap name ever…it is a goat turd of a rap name. We get it your making a hilarious jab at the apparent absurdity of some rap names out there. Though, it's those larger than life names and corresponding personalities that draw us deeper into the mixtape world, this smarmy and essentially unutterable name is rather polarizing. You would purchase a Childish Gambino album in the same cart with several pairs of well-crafted foakleys. Or a pair of fur lined crocs. Or one of those generic Go-Chicago t-shirts you see at Jewel branded exactly like Bulls or Cubs. Just reeking of knock-off.
He seems to perpetuate a lot of unwarranted anger that makes the album a rather regrettable listen. The entire album just sounds like one long gripe. In fact this blog post is starting to sound like his album…The only way I could ever see anyone getting this album is if you were still somehow a member of that ole BMG music scam where you were bullied into ordering 10 albums every week. The idea of "I hope the show gets cancelled, maybe then I can focus," and later bitching about the 1% are just a few of the enraging contradictions found on the album. It is a complete unsalvageable pile.

Space Shuttle Endeavour's Launch Scrubbed
Problem with a power unit means at least a 72-hour delay
Update 2:12 p.m.: Regardless of the mission scrub, President Barack Obama decided to visit with the astronauts and Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. Biong Boing's Xeni Jardin tweets that Air Force One just landed at Kennedy Space Center.
Here's the president arriving on Air Force One, courtesy of @NASAKennedy:
It looks like the final launch of NASA's space shuttle Endeavor has been canceled for today. Space Flight Now is reporting a problem with one of the orbiter's auxiliary power units. NASA concurs via Twitter. The early word from the space agency is that there was an "issue with Auxiliary Power Unit 1 heaters." The mission will be delayed at least 72 hours. NASA has put the estimated launch time at 2:33 p.m. on Monday.
At least NASA's people appear to have a sense of humor about the delay. Jezebel founder Anna Holmes is at Cape Canaveral and tweets this quip from an unnamed NASA official: "We did show you a first. This is the first time we've sent out the Astrovan just to have it turn back." Here's a photo of the surprisingly old-looking van full of astronauts courtesy of Flickr user dpstyles:
It looks like astronaut Michael Finke bragged about his launch day breakfast a little prematurely.

Our movement is made up of individuals who are tired of the political status quo, and want a government that truly represents we the people. Here's how you can get involved in the movement to put voters first.
Virginians deserve better.
In a 2015 report on the health of state democracies, Virginia came in second to last out of 51 jurisdictions and received an F in ballot access, an F in representation in state government, and a D in limiting political influence.
In 2019, Unite Virginia supported a core group of candidates who were open to electoral reform and in 2020 we will be expanding our efforts by building coalitions and supporting structural reforms.
Unity Candidates
People who put people over party. It's not about prescribing an ideology; it's about solving problems. We support candidates in both parties' primaries who are pragmatic, pro-reform, and pledge to join a cross-partisan caucus.
We support ranked choice voting (RCV) pilot legislation that makes local elections for cities and counties better, faster and cheaper. RCV is a simple and easy improvement to the way we vote.
Ranked choice voting provides voters the option to rank candidates in order of preference. If a voter only wants to vote for a single candidate, they can still do that. If a candidate does not receive a majority of the votes, an instant runoff process is used and the election is decided as soon as a candidate reaches a majority of votes.
Unite Virginia supports ranked choice voting pilot legislation that provides an opportunity for Virginia localities to implement RCV for local elections.
Why Ranked Choice Voting
Ranked Choice voting provides a simple and easy improvement for jurisdictions that want to try it, along with a better process that makes elections faster and cheaper for jurisdictions that really want it.
Redistricting Reform
We support redistricting reform and applaud the passage of the pending Virginia constitutional amendment supported by OneVirginia2021 with comprehensive enabling of legislation.
Virginia's Anti-Gerrymandering Story
In 2019, the people spoke out against gerrymandering and legislators listened by overwhelmingly passing a bipartisan constitutional amendment that has the possibility to make history by creating a redistricting commission in Virginia. Though it was a monumental effort to get this far, it was only the first step.
In 2020, the amendment was passed again by the Virginia General Assembly exactly as is in order for it to go to the people for a vote. With 70% of Virginia voters supporting the initiative, it's a no brainer, right?
Here is a great overview of the current proposal by OneVirginia2021.
If we come together across party lines and add criteria for commission members and selection, mapping criteria, community engagement and transparency, and laws that all courts must follow. Together, we can make history.
Virginia, let's finish the fight against partisan gerrymandering.
We support legislation making it easier for Virginians to vote by mail in order to improve voter engagement, reduce election-related costs, and strengthen election security.
Why Vote by Mail
Vote by mail improves the voting process by letting voters decide when, where, and how they want to vote.
We support legislation that gradually makes Virginia a vote by mail state. Starting with no-excuse absentee and allowing voters to become permanent absentee voters if they choose.
Voting by mail benefits everyone including rural voters who may have a long-drive, individuals who may have trouble getting to a polling location, and pretty much everyone who would prefer more convenience while voting. It also has been proven to save money and increase election security and results in jurisdictions where it has already been implemented.
Stay up to date on our movement, and learn how you can get involved.
Got it! Thank you for joining the movement

Have you tried Dale and Plum Creek Supply: 641-330-6453.
That's where I bought my last pair.
Love my Dans chaps. I don't wear the froglegs, mine are just the regular briar free ones, but they will bust thru some nasty stuff. They definitely save my expensive hunting pants from getting shredded. I got mine from F&T, and they carry the froglegs too.
