Mangione Cousin Wins Baltimore Election

The NY Post reports that Republican Nino Mangione won the Baltimore County Council District 5 seat by about four points over Democrat Shawn McIntosh, and it got the race details from TMZ. That is a sentence I never expected to write about a county council seat, and I have sat through plenty of county council meetings. His campaign ran on backing law enforcement and tougher penalties for criminals, which is a platform a hardware man can follow. Mangione served in the Maryland House of Delegates and hosts The Right Side on WCBM. His first cousin, Luigi, pleaded guilty to killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, and the national press has found that detail far more interesting than the county budget. Nobody in the press has asked me about the county budget, and I run a store.
