Alicia Long, a close associate of MAGA US Attorney Ed Martin, ran for Treasurer. She lost by 26,380 to 8,854. No name recognition involved. Just a campaign mounted by members of the DC bar to ensure these two MAGATS got their asses kicked. Turnout went from 8.6% in 2024 to over 43% this year. Message delivered.
