TL;DR

Montgomery County Council member Will Jawando declared victory in the Democratic primary for county executive in Maryland’s largest county, taking a commanding lead even though the Associated Press had not yet projected a winner. Jawando, backed by endorsements from outgoing County Executive Marc Elrich, has pitched progressive policies and coalition-building, while Andrew Friedson has run a more business-focused campaign and has yet to concede. The race, in a county that has elected Democrats to the post for decades, could reshape housing and growth policy in the DC suburbs.
