Election day

11.2.2010

Washington Post's Jay Mathews has a new column out this morning, about election day and what it might mean for education policy if Republicans gain control of the U.S. House (and,?according to?some daring suggestions, maybe even the Senate). In his piece,?Jay talks a lot about Mike and Checker, and their recent thoughts on the matter. They've written a few Congress-themed pieces lately ? one about Republican control, one about Democratic control, and a few others too, related to government and politics.

For an interesting ?election morning? read, check them out, along with Jay's column.

?Amy Fagan
