The Future District 24th Senator Joanne Benson |
Among the more notable: challenger Joanne C. Benson over the incumbent, Nathaniel Exum, in Senate District 24. The editorial says Sen. Exum "has a terrible reputation in Annapolis, which is richly deserved. Despite his long years as a lawmaker, he has no significant leadership role in the Senate, and for good reason: He is widely regarded as an obstructionist who wields the race card as a cudgel. His major achievements are few, unless you consider what he's helped block -- for instance, a rescue package for Prince George's Hospital. A better choice is Del. Joanne C. Benson, a 20-year veteran of the House who's fought against human trafficking and domestic violence and was instrumental in enacting Maryland's seat-belt law."

Benson can't be much better. She's never answered a letter or e-mail I've sent her.
