. . . Homicides by county
Why would Montgomery County Executive Doug Duncan highlight crime in his campaign? Because Montgomery County's homicide rate is minuscule compared to the jurisdictions of those competing against him in the Democratic gubernatorial nomination race. Baltimore's has barely fallen and Prince George's County has been on an almost-constant rise.*In 2002, the highest homicide rate in a six-year span can be partly attributed to the high-profile sniper shootings that fall.
