The race for the Congressional seat in District 6 remains the most tightly-contested in the county. As of this writing, April McClain Delaney leads her opponent Neil Parrott by 315 votes.
Here is the statement her office released late on Wednesday afternoon:
“Thank you to all those who have supported our campaign, believed in our message, and worked tirelessly to bring us to this moment. I am deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, and the shared commitment to our values – values rooted in “common sense, common ground” progress for Maryland’s 6th District.
“As we continue to monitor the results, at least 35,000 mail-in ballots remain to be counted, representing the overwhelming majority of outstanding votes. Of those counted so far, we’re winning over 70%.
“I am confident that once the counting begins again on Thursday, our current lead will grow, we will win, and we can then begin the hard work of delivering for our incredible district.”
Delaney is expected to make an on-camera statement on Thursday.
MCM reached out to Parrott but has not heard back as of this writing.
