As Election Day approaches in Maryland, voters prepare to nominate candidates for Senate, Congress, County Executive, the Governorship, and other local positions. We meet some of the candidates, and take a look at the biggest stories in regional politics, from the Virginia election results, the ouster of incumbents in Alexandria, concerns in Prince George’s County over the embattled public school CEO’s potential severance package and a drop in on-time graduation rates for D.C. Public School students.
Sorting political fact from fiction, and having fun while we’re at it. Join us for our weekly review of the politics, policies, and personalities of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
