Margin of Error (The Wire)

On Sunday morning, Mayor Royce and Councilmen Gray and Carcetti attend church to win support from the ministers as the election approaches.

At Wilson's urging, Carcetti appears on several radio talk shows, which helps to get his mind off Royce's campaign flyer.

He gets a call from D'Agostino to tell him that Royce has conceded, making him the presumptive mayor-elect, because Baltimore is such a heavily Democratic city.

However, Rawls tells Landsman to detail Greggs and Norris to uniformed duty at the polls, stalling the witness case until after the election.

Donnelly and Grace remove Namond from regular class and put him in Colvin and Parenti's study program along with nine other students.

Carver meets with Randy's foster mother, who worries about the boy's safety should anyone learn that he has spoken to the police.

On Election Day, while accompanying his foster mother to the polls, Randy is paid by a Carcetti staffer to pass out leaflets.

Randy recruits Dukie, Kenard and Donut to help him, completing the job by himself after the others take advantage of the staffer's up front payment.

Meanwhile, Brianna cuts Namond and his mother De'Londa loose, partly because her income from the collapsed Barksdale Organization has run out.

When Namond returns home he tells De'Londa that his new corner duties were easy to carry out, but he later dumps a full bag of drugs on his bed, indicating that he has not sold any of his package.

Don't try this shit at home.This is made in reference of Norman chiding Carcetti for trying to handle the vote turnout of the primary election on his own.
