: A volunteer working for the campaign of a D.C. Council candidate has been arrested for the stabbing death of a man in Southeast.

: Virginia is a key state in national elections, a must-win state come November. But Virginia’s Republican primary on Tuesday could be an afterthought for many people.

: Now that the NFL has uncovered a big-money bounty program for players in New Orleans, it likely will zero in on other teams Gregg Williams worked for. That means the Titans, Redskins, Jaguars and Bills probably should all expect to hear from the league soon.
