Virginia consumers could eventually be able to choose their electric company.

Money owed by criminals is hard to collect.
In recent years, Virginia officials turned criminal debts over to prosecutors and collection agencies, which can garnish state wages, tax refunds and lottery prizes.
But some say the results aren't very impressive.
Alexandria has one of northern Virginia's most successful debt-collection efforts -- retrieving 22 percent of the overdue fines and fees referred this year.
