Maryland's Primary Election has come and gone, but some votes have yet to be counted.
As it stands now, multiple challengers look poised to defeat incumbents in local office.
Starting off in Baltimore City, State Senator Dalya Attar was ousted by Del. Malcolm Ruff after an intense primary battle for the 41st District seat. The Associated Press called the race just after midnight.
Attar was federally indicted in October 2025 for extortion. She'd been appointed to the seat in January 2025, after former Senator Jill Carter stepped down.
Carter and Governor Wes Moore endorsed Ruff in the race.
Also in the city, Sabrina Tapp-Harper remains nearly 5,000 votes ahead of Baltimore City Sheriff Sam Cogen, as of Wednesday morning.
Harper was backed by Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott over Cogen, who four years ago knocked off John Anderson, after serving as City Sheriff for more than three decades.
In Baltimore County, it appears prosecutor Sarah David has defeated long-time Democratic State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger by a rather wide margin.
Results have not yet been certified, and there are still mail-in ballots yet to be counted.
