Donna Edwards Gets the Washington Post Endorsement

This is a big hometown paper endorsement for the challenger who came surprisingly close to knocking off incumbent Congressman Albert R. Wynn in her first run for office two years ago (when the paper had also endorsed her). Edwards has been a netroots favorite, and the Washington Post editorial board has been one of its favorite targets. With a presidential primary on the same day, turnout in this heavily African-American district in the D.C. suburbs could be huge. Both Wynn and Edwards have endorsed Barack Obama.
