WaPo:
In Montgomery and Prince George's counties yesterday, election officials continued to count the thousands of paper provisional ballots that could determine the outcome of the 4th Congressional District Democratic primary race between incumbent U.S. Rep. Albert R. Wynn and challenger Donna Edwards. Prince George's officials yesterday cracked opened 26 machines and retrieved votes that had not been counted.A full eight days after the primary, these votes are only now being discovered. Who's doing the election counting? FEMA?
More details in extended.
Donna Edwards is challenging seven-term incumbent Albert Wynn in the Democratic MD-04 primary coming up on September 12th. This is a race which has been defined by a very comfortable, arrogant incumbent and a fresh, progressive challenger.
The Edwards campaign is about accountability and giving MD-04 an alternative. This is the first time in Wynn's history as a Representative that he's faced a substantial Democratic primary challenger.
Both candidates just recently filed their pre-primary fundraising totals. Inside--the good news, the bad and a call for action and support.
