Delegate Rick Weldon falls breaks arm
Weldon Jr., Richard B., (R), District 3B, Frederick & Washington Cos.
Rick fell in the Windsor Knolls subdivision in Frederick County while campaigning for re-election as a Delegate in District 3-B on Saturday morning, October 21st, 2006 and broke his left arm at the elbow.
Rick wrote, “The combination of a steep driveway and soapy water resulted in a broken arm. For George and Tony's sake, I finished distributing flyers before I went to FMH urgent care. Talk about working for every vote. Since it's my left arm, and I'm left handed, I'm going to work with my voice recognition software this week.”
Rick is opposed by Democrat Paul Gilligan in the general election November 7th, 2006.
