Last night was primaries night here in Maryland, which meant my ol’ buddy Dave was in a six-way race for the Republican nomination for Harford County Sheriff. As much as I’m behind him, I couldn’t vote for him. Why? Two reasons: first, I don’t live in Harford County. Second, you’ve got to be a registered Republican to vote in the Republican primaries. (That is to say, I vote Constitution Party.)
While L. Jesse Bane coasted to an easy victory for the Democratic nomination for sheriff, the Republican results were less clear. Cochran and Price were virtually deadlocked and barely ahead of four challengers. It could take a week for election officials to count absentee and provisional ballots and determine a winner.

You can get the latest results at the Harford County’s election results page. It looks like there’s a definite gap between Cochran/Price and Tritt/Benedetto, but you never know what may turn up during recounts and such.
Hey, even if Dave doesn’t make it, he can always run as an Independent… right?
