WICOMICO COUNCIL DISTRICT FOUR RACE TIGHTER BUT MAY BE OVER

On Friday the Board of Elections issued unofficial data for the recent election that have a 2 vote margin for Bob Caldwell over David MacLeod – 2037 to 2035 – after the 2nd absentee count. The only remaining count will be on November 22 for military ballots and a few contested ballots. We understand that the Board thinks that, at most, only a few more ballots will be received by the 22nd.

Another unknown is why the mainstream media has not reported on this latest count and margin in the District Four race.

By the way, Rick Pollitt now has a margin of more than 900 votes over Joe Ollinger – slightly more than 3% of the votes in their race for County Exec.

What better proof than this race that "Every vote is important." So many ask why they should go vote because one vote doesn't make a differece. Now we see. Congratulations, Bob. My vote was one you received.

Well, Rick Pollitt should look at it this way.........almost half of the voters did NOT want him in there again because they are not happy about how he has run it the past 4 years. He probably ought to consider what the people want or next go round the other half will probably not vote for him. If there had been a better candidate running against him he wouldn't have gotten it this time.
