Planning For Red Voters Only

Representative Tom Davis (R-VA) last week announced his intent to use Congress's authority over Washington’s Metro system to force a downsizing of a TOD proposed adjacent to a station near his home. His intentions for doing so may not be simple NIMBYism, though, as multiple Fairfax County officials have come forward to say that the Congressman told them he wants to block urban apartments from being built in his district because the sort of person who would live in an urban apartment would not be likely to vote Republican.
