Employment attorney Diane Seltzer has won a closely watched contest to lead the D.C. Bar Association, defeating securities lawyer Brad Bondi in a race with record turnout.

Seltzer tallied more than 90 percent of the electronic vote with "no issues or irregularities" in the voting system, D.C. Bar CEO Bob Spagnoletti said in a press call Monday.

More than 38,000 people voted in the race, more than five times as many voters in a typical election, he said.

Brad Bondi is a prominent lawyer who has represented billionaire Elon Musk and the Trump Media & Technology Group, among other large corporate clients.

Legal Eagle did a video about voting against this guy and explains why it would be bad to have a Trumper controlling the DC Bar.

It's worth a watch even now.
