Obama Defeated Romney in Glen Burnie
A look at the vote totals for precincts in Glen Burnie show President Obama narrowly edged challenger Mitt Romney on Election Day.
President Barack Obama earned just 121 more votes than Republican challenger Mitt Romney in Glen Burnie on Tuesday.

Before you add up the votes for an individual, you need to count the provisional and absentee ballots. Otherwise that is the type of math used by MBN (The Make Believe News network)
