This month, MPW is on pace to receive at least 70,000 site visits and perhaps 200,000 page views, both runaway records in the history of this site. About a fifth of our traffic comes from search engine links, so when voters search for candidates online, they come here because information on them often does not exist anywhere else. When they have arrived over the last two weeks, here are the posts they have viewed more often than any others.
1. Light Saqib, Dark Saqib
2. Nuclear War in District 19
3. Illegal Sample Ballot Goes Out in Prince George’s County
4. Do You Believe Your Own Eyes?
5. Police Call for Investigation of Duchy Trachtenberg

7. MPW Reader Poll: Who is Running the Dirtiest Campaign in MoCo?
