Uprising
That's "Virginia," as in Congresswoman Virginia Foxx.

I just received my notice from the Chair of the B of E regarding the change of the Precinct 3 polling site. Instead of the Armory where it's been for quite some time, I now have to find transportation to the new site on Bamboo Rd. I was also informed by the Chair that "We are proud to be able to use the main room (upstairs) as the new polling station. This raises a few questions: First, will their be ample parking at this new site? Will the 'upstairs' be handicapped accessible? What are the costs associated with using this new space? Who is being paid for our using this new space?
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.
The views expressed on WataugaWatch are solely those of J.W. Williamson or individual contributors and are not necessarily shared nor endorsed by the Watauga County Democratic Party nor by any other adults of sound mind in this or any other universe.
