(Washington Post) — A chief strategist to Vincent C. Gray’s mayoral campaign said Tuesday that Mayor Adrian M. Fenty likely has a small lead among those who have cast ballots in the Sept. 14 Democratic primary, but added that the council chairman is well-equipped to step up his get-out-the-vote effort in the final six days of the campaign.
Responding to reports that many of the ballots cast at early-voting sites are near expected Fenty strongholds in Chevy Chase and Capitol Hill, Gray strategist Mo Elleithee told reporters his candidate “is probably a little behind” among the more than 8,000 D.C. residents who have voted. But Elleithee added, “we feel like we can bring this home.”
