MD Senate President Bill Ferguson proclaims win in primary election

Maryland Senate President Bill Ferguson declared victory over challenger Bobby LaPin on Tuesday in the Democratic primary race to represent District 46.

“Tonight, you sent me back to Annapolis,” the state Senate president said at an election party at the union hall owned by Baltimore City Fire Fighters Local 734 on Tuesday evening. “I’ve done this long enough to know that trust is earned and never owed. I want to thank each and every one of you.”

As of 10 p.m., Ferguson was beating LaPin on a margin of about 58% to 42% of votes with 29 of 55 Election Day precincts reported, according to the Maryland State Board of Elections’ unofficial returns. He said he had not yet spoken with LaPin.

Party attendees cheered as results in the District 46 Senate race flashed on the screen showing Ferguson with a clear lead.
