Nino Mangione, cousin of accused United Healthcare CEO killer Luigi Mangione, narrowly won re-election to the Baltimore County Council on Tuesday, edging out his Democratic challenger in what is considered one of the county’s purplest districts.

Mangione, a staunch MAGA Republican whose grandfather was a multimillionaire real estate magnate, won the seat representing District 5 with 48.7 percent of the votes, beating Democrat Shawn McIntosh.

        In the early days of Covid, when I was working in retail and living in absolute terror of dying on a ventilator, a customer came in and bragged getting his vaccine shot before it was available to anyone but the old and immune-compromised because his son worked as an executive at a hospital.

        Just by-the-by.
