Firetti's Campaign Finance Reports
Blogger Loudoun Insider is calling for an investigation into former Board of Supervisors candidate Mike Firetti's campaign finance reports – writing that, in spite of debts to his campaign, Firetti spent $16,000 on a personalized license plate in Delaware. "So young Joshua Dispenza seemingly gets shafted for $1500 while Firetti blows $16,000 on a license plate? Wouldn’t you think this deserves at least cursory investigation, since rooting out campaign finance misdeeds seems so important in the Tate case?" he wrote.

Housing Market
Real estate bloggers Danilo and Tony have posted some commentary on Loudoun's market for homes worth more than $1 million. "At this price point, the buyer pool is much smaller. And the amount of inventory heavily outweighs the amount of demand making it much more a buyer's market then the lower price brackets," the bloggers wrote.
