Roy Baldwin Defeated: Machine Member Tossed Aside

Now that the voters have sent Roy Baldwin back to humping divorce cases -- everyone can take a deep breath that one of Vienna's biggest losers will not be our State delegate. See what happens when a machine member (Baldwin) has to run in an election outside of sham May Vienna elections? Down in defeat.

What did he ever win in a May Vienna election?

I see that Baldwin even came behind Esam Omeish.

Internet the point was that if Baldwin was deemed someone to be anointed to Vienna Town Council, he would be on VTC right now (like Springsteen, etc.). For those who do not know Baldwin is a loyal Maud/Jane grunt who sits on the Vienna ARB now -- which means he can always be "picked" by the machine from the bench for a VTC position. But Roy Boy had to run outside the machine and got defeated by an Islamic fanatic.

Ever consider that Maud's machine may not have wanted Baldwin to win.

I'm still trying to figure out how "I've lived in Vienna and run a business in Oaklton for 30 years" constitutes a campaign platform.
