Ruth Kirk dies; in-state tuition hike passed; many mayors gather in Baltimore city; taxi medallions curbed in Prince George’s; and Howard County population booms, so should the council also grow?

Ehrlich fundraiser calls Henson hire ‘terrible mistake’; gov goes fishing and other briefs
Dick Hug, top fundraiser for ex-Gov. Bob Ehrlich for his last three campaigns, said hiring campaign consultant Julius Henson was “a terrible mistake” and he and Elaine Pevenstein, executive director of Ehrlich campaign office, argued against the hire. Henson and campaign chief Paul Schurick were indicted Thursday for deceptive Election Day robocalls telling black voters to stay home. Hug said Henson’s reputation for dirty tricks was well known, particularly his role in depicting Republican nominee Ellen Sauerbrey as a racist in her 1998 race for governor.
