Alsobrooks, Trone seek to connect with party faithful at Annapolis breakfast club

Angela Alsobrooks stood with her back to the bar on a bright January morning in Annapolis. No cocktails were being served, and even the electric coffee urn produced only an unsatisfying dribble for anyone arriving less than 15 minutes early at the Almost 7:30 Democratic breakfast club meeting. Yet the room was packed with exactly the kind of voters Alsobrooks needs if she wants to win the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate over U.S. Rep. David Trone.
