<Title>Thomas Schaller, Political Science, in the Baltimore Sun</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">The latest Baltimore Sun column by UMBC political science professor Thomas Schaller delves into the Democratic primary election in Maryland’s Sixth Congressional District, a seat held by longtime Republican incumbent Roscoe Bartlett. Schaller focuses on the candidacy of Dr. Milad Pooran, a 35-year-old Iranian-American physician and veteran of the U.S. Air Force Medical Corps. He sees Pooran as both “a different kind of candidate” and distinct from Maryland current Democratic House delegates who, as a group, “aren’t short on political careerism or business connections.” Learn more in his Sun column.</div>

<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">“The protracted battle for the Republican presidential nomination is about to thrust Maryland’s GOP voters into the unusual position of having a voice in a national political contest even though they live in one of the country’s most reliably blue states,” reports today’s Baltimore Sun. The battle for the state’s 37 delegates has begun. One Maryland lawmaker suggests, “Maryland is a state that could be up for grabs,” but UMBC public policy chair and MIPAR director Donald Norris has a more reserved perspective. “Every delegate at this point is important,” he says. “But could Maryland knock one of them out? …</div>

<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">UMBC’s Eric Zeemering, assistant professor of public policy, commented in the Baltimore Sun this week on a measure that would allow residents of New Windsor to recall their local elected officials. Zeemering credited the sluggish economy with motivating recall efforts and petition drives across the U.S. “There is not mass public distrust of government,” he said. “In many cases, this is about the serious budget and services challenges these jurisdictions face as the full impact of the recession unfolds.”</div>

<Title>Thomas Schaller, Political Science, in Salon and the Baltimore Sun</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">“[T]he 2012 presidential election is effectively over right now,” suggests political science professor Thomas Schaller in a provocative new Salon column this week. Despite the twists and turns of the GOP primary, he argues, “All of the available data indicate that Romney will be the Republican nominee by end of spring, and Barack Obama will be the victor come fall.” So what is at stake in the GOP primary in Schaller’s eyes?
