We are concerned by some of the tactics Ms. Pugh's campaign has employed. Her decision to solicit campaign contributions from lobbyists appearing before her committee in Annapolis during this year's legislative session may follow the letter of Maryland's campaign finance law but not its spirit. And her campaign's efforts to bus people to the polls after attracting them with the prospect of an election-day job (and providing them with lunch and snacks) at the very least skirts close to the line when it comes to Maryland's law on offering a reward or promise of reward to those who vote. Given the facts as we presently know them, those incidents are disappointing but not disqualifying. We don't need a mayor who is guided solely by what she believes is legal, we need one who will do what is right. We will watch closely to ensure that such lapses of judgment do not extend to her administration.
