Rep. Rush Holt's bill was introduced the same day that Maryland voters
learned the security of their electronic voting machines would be

Republicans joined a long list of Democrats to buy votes because it
works. Besides, Grasshopper, Congress taxes and spends. Presidents
simply write the checks.

challenge to the state partyÂ’s plans to hold caucuses Saturday at nine
casinos on the Las Vegas Strip. The state teacherÂ’s union had filed a
lawsuit challenging the fairness of the rules allowing casinos workers

temporary injunction. “State Democrats have a First Amendment right to

said.
