CHEVY CHASE, Md. — The scene at Dana Beyer's Chevy Chase, Md., home is somber. With all but seven of the 35 precincts having reported their votes, it's clear the transgender eye surgeon-turned-political hopeful has not garnered enough votes to secure one of the three state General Assembly seats for her home turf of District 18.

Beyer was pragmatic during a brief concession speech in her living room to a houseful of canvass workers, family, friends and supporters.
