Chelsea Manning loses longshot bid in Maryland Democratic Senate primary
Fox News ^ | June 26, 2018 | Gregg Re

Posted on 06/26/2018 8:23:17 PM PDT by EdnaMode

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.

It is BRADLEY and HE and he had zero chance to win though it would have been interesting to see the Democrats figuring out how to deal with him.

Yes, remember James Traficant from Ohio? He didn’t win but he was still in prison when he ran and was on the ballot.

Too bad... He, she, it is the face of the Democratic party. A former soldier who should be imprisoned for life running as a Democrat.

Just saw a tweet that said Manning had regret after his lopitoffame (amazed that autocorrect brings that word up after typing lopito).

The sodomite freak got his trans punk a$$ cornholed hard - and likely enjoyed the experience.

The great unwashed electorate is not yet ready for a Chromosome Denier traitor. They chose wisely,

In the last year I read a story about an obviously sick individual who chopped it off and put it back on I don’t remember how many times. The man needed help and instead got so-called physicians who refused to follow the Hippocratic Oath. His body is scarred for life. Sad, very sad.

Too bad. I’d rather have the freak than that weasel Cardin. At least it would be entertaining.
