I’m glad Walkinshaw won, but I would have been ok with any of them other than Stella.

She had LOTS of campaign money. Probably figured "why not."

Agree, she would have been terrible.

Where are you seeing the results?

I don't know if they post numbers of results. I just saw that Walkinshaw won. If you check the twitter accounts of the candidates you will see the concessions.

Same at West Springfield Government center. Many of the candidates had people there answering questions and handing out fliers. They were tossing about that Pekarsky is "teacher endorsed". Blech.


Stella is not teacher endorsed, only one teacher union has endorsed her. Yet that union president is acting like all FCPS teachers support Stella. We don’t.

There was a steady stream of people (and a line) at my voting location. It's been that way all day. Nice to see what looks like a good turnout for "just" a primary.
