I can't support. In more recent months, however, she has scrapped such rhetoric, saying the episode is behind her. But I would hope that the characteristics of fighting for what you believe to be right are not perceived as totally negative characteristics. . . .

Glendening isn't going to make it easy for people to forget. Sauerbrey's suspicion that the election had been stolen began shortly after the polls closed on Nov. 8, 1994. She had taken the lead in the vote count early and held it throughout the evening, but as the night wore on, Glendening votes started rolling in.

On the Record Sauerbrey, Glendening face each other a second time.
