They endorsed Gov. O&#8217;Malley&#8217;s choice, former Del. Connie DeJuliis, over Sen. Jim Brochin in D42. Well, I guess that&#8217;s finally something Miller and Brochin have in common.<\/p>\n<p>In Montgomery County, the AFL-CIO said no to five incumbent delegates: Kathleen Dumais and Aruna Miller in D15, Ariana Kelly in D16, Al Carr and Ana Sol Guti\u00e9rrez in D18. They endorsed only two challengers in these same districts: Bennett Rushkoff in D15, and Natali Fani-Gonzalez in D18.<\/p>\n<p>In Prince George&#8217;s District 26, the AFL-CIO picked Del. Veronica Turner over incumbent Sen. Anthony Muse. Indeed, they went with Turner&#8217;s whole slate. In Charles County District 2, they also said no to two incumbent delegates&#8211;C.T. Wilson and Sally Jameson&#8211;but endorsed challenger Edith Patterson.<\/p>\n<p>No doubt there is more news in here but that&#8217;s what I noticed in a very quick glance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GOVERNOR\/LT.
