Convicted leaker Chelsea Manning was soundly defeated Tuesday in her run against longtime Sen. Ben Cardin in the Maryland Democratic primary, ending a longshot bid that attracted widespread media attention when it began in January.
Cardin, 74, triumphed over Manning and six other Democrats, although none was as high-profile as Manning, the former Army intelligence analyst whom President Trump has described as an "ungrateful traitor."
A two-term incumbent and ranking Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Cardin is expected to prevail in the solidly blue state in November. His Republican opponent is yet to be determined.
For Manning, who was arrested in 2010 and convicted in 2013 of leaking a trove of sensitive documents to WikiLeaks, a run for the Senate would have been all but unthinkable years ago.

Yes. In Florida we have His Dishonor Alcee Hadtings.
“Chelsea” didn’t fool anybody. “That’s a dude, man!” was the number one response in the “exit polls”.
You mean Captain Kangaroo
Mr. Manning’s fifteen minutes appear to be about up. He may have to get a real job soon.
We need to stop referring to him as a her/she. The liberals do this all the time, and we’re falling for it too. While I would’t consider him a man by any stretch of the imagination, it is still a male. No amount of cutting or hormone injections can change his XY to an XX. I for one refuse to bow to their lunacy, and will refer to them based on their biological sex; or a simple “it” works for me too.
Will he sob quietly in a corner?
Leaker is not in quotes but “traitor” is?
Fox News is crap news.
A cross dresser versus a brain-dead incumbent. Should have been a closer race in a Marxist state.
Bradley/Chelsea Manning. Still a loser!
aww Bradley. and i was sure you’d win. Next time dude.
Chelsea Manning 32,205 5.7%
Jerry Segal 18,775 3.3%
Yes, remember James Traficant from Ohio? He didn’t win but he was still in prison when he ran and was on the ballot.

Jim was a character. I liked his style.
Another suicide threat in 3...2...
Maybe he will run third party or independent and draw votes away from Cardin.
HIS name is BRADLEY.
