Much activity in the
corridor.... |
Ann Wagner rushes out of the
Hall visibly upset and heads into a nearby room. |
After a while Matt Schlapp, manager of Maria Cino's campaign, is walking by and checking his messages...as Wagner and Steele emerge. |

Anuzis is also active, talking with Ray Wagner and then going into a huddle with his supporters. |
At about 3:55 p.m. Steele
announces, "I will step aside because I think the party is ready for
something different." He releases his supporters, but asks them
to vote for Maria Cino. |
