Will rail transit decide the Virginia Senate race?

Maybe:

RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 26 (AP) — The independent candidate for the Senate from Virginia said Thursday that she was negotiating with her Democratic and Republican opponents about withdrawing from the race and backing one of them.

The independent, Gail Parker, running a lightly financed campaign and focused on a vast expansion of passenger rail systems in Virginia, registers 2 percent in statewide polls.

[...]

Ms. Parker said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press that her campaign had asked Mr. Allen’s campaign to commit to new financing for train systems.

Allen may work to get the funding for the system, but don't be surprised if it comes with the catch that "macacas" have to ride in the back.
