Will Texas Answer the Bell?

Congratulations to Chris Bell of the DIA community on a resounding victory in yesterday's Texas gubernatorial primary. We've profiled their fabulous blog in this space in the past; their blogad (left) is rather spiffy, too.

On to November...

Meanwhile, the Cuellar victory over Ciro Rodriguez in the lefty netroots centerpiece primary campaign is sure to generate plenty of heat, and possibly a little light, as left and right blogs strafe each other at dawn.

Update:  Considerably more interesting than the same-old horseracing is one of the most high-profile deployments of instant runoff voting -- won, no less, by a Progressive Party candidate -- in Vermont.  A really exciting direction for people growing weary of the "hold your nose and vote for" routine.
