Laura Hussey, Political Science, in The Washington Post
A recent column in The Washington Post argues the ongoing technical problems with the rollout of the Affordable Care Act in Maryland are unlikely to have a negative impact on Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown’s chances in the race for governor.
The article states Brown has six months until the Democratic primary to correct problems with the state’s health care exchange and has secured endorsements and support from almost all of the party establishment.
Political science assistant professor Laura Hussey was interviewed for the column and said the health exchange problems will likely fade away come election time.
“This is not a scandal that breaks important social mores or ethics. This isn’t something that is going to be a hot election issue . . . that’s going to fly in sound-bite politics,” Hussey said.
You can read the full article in The Washington Post here.
