Contestants brace for returns in the First District
By Max Pizarro, PolitickerNJ.com ReporterWith the weather creating a delay followed by a great big slowdown, the three combatants in the 1st District Congressional race are awaiting the returns on Tuesday night on the Eastern Shore.
"I don't have any numbers yet," Chris Meekins, spokesman for challenger Andy Harris, told PolitickerMD a short time ago, speaking on his cellphone from Harris's Crab House (a Harris of no relation, he noted).
E.J. Pipkin spokeswoman Andi Morony likewise expressed reservation about predicting the results in the hard fought three-way GOP primary.
The man who has the job Harris and Pipkin are seeking, U.S. Rep. Wayne Gilchrest, told PolitickerMD reporter Kevin Agnese that he would call once his campaign is certain about tonight's results.

Quote of the Day
In the long run, fiscal responsibility can and must be a watchword of our majority. For eight years, the administration lived by the proposition summed up by vice president Cheney, who said, 'Reagan proved deficits don't matter.' Businesses, consumers pursued that siren song to the brink of financial destruction - and some, of course, have gone over that brink. We are now experiencing the stark, painful reality that debt does indeed matter."
- House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer.
