		<description><![CDATA[Incumbent Democrat David Rudolph swam against the Republican tide in Tuesday’s election, narrowly winning re-election in the only state delegate district solely within Cecil County. Rudolph won 6,782 votes, or 48.46 percent of the total, in District 34B. His chief rival, Republican Theodore Patterson, received 6,461 votes, or 46.1 percent. A third party candidate, Michael W. Dawson, who ran on the Constitution Party ticket, received 749 votes, or 5.35 percent. Dawson’s third party candidacy may have saved the seat for Rudolph, drawing conservative votes away from Patterson. (Michael W. Dawson is not the same person as the Mike Dawson who ran unsuccessfully in the GOP primary for a county commissioner’s seat.) Patterson is a leader of the county’s Young Republicans Club and a charter member of the slate of candidates backed by Del. Michael Smigiel and Sen. E.J. Pipkin (both R-36th District.) Patterson did not attend candidates’ forums, unlike Rudolph and Dawson, during the campaign. Rudolph’s district covers the central and western portions of Cecil County, while Smigiel’s adjoining district covers much of Elkton and all of the southern Cecil County area—along with all of Kent and Queen Anne’s counties and part of Caroline county.

		<description><![CDATA[Like the old Abbott and Costello comedy routine (&#8221; Who&#8217;s on First?&#8221;) or the vintage comic strip of Alphonse and Gaston (&#8220;After you,sir&#8221; and &#8220;No, After You&#8221;), the candidates forum for Cecil County&#8217;s District 36 Senate and House of Delegates seats Tuesday night was an entertaining sideshow in an otherwise routine evening of multiple candidates&#8217; recitation of their resumes and &#8220;vote for me&#8221; appeals. The forum, hosted by the Cecil County Chamber of Commerce at Cecil College, let candidates have four minutes to speak to an audience of about 200 people, without any questions from a panel or moderator, and it was not set up for back and forth debate among candidates. The groundrules scheduled incumbents to speak first, followed by their election opponents. That was fine with all the other candidates for state-level office &#8211;but not Cecil County&#8217;s District 36 leadership. When incumbent Republican Sen. E.J. Pipkin&#8217;s name was called, he was not present in the auditorium. (In fact, he was seen waving from his truck, about a half-mile down the road from the college shortly before the forum began at 6:30 p.m.) So his Democratic rival Steve Mumford, of Kent County, went first. Pipkin then arrived in the [&#8230;]]]></description>
