Getting this back on topic...saw this cool guy parked in a lot near me a few weeks back:

You'd think that will all of the money in that family, he'd be able to afford a nicer trailer.

Wow, I definitely read that as "dead woman in his brain" and thought, top that, uncle Teddy.
Oof though Ted did die of a brain tumor.

dude running against hogan in MD primary posts ad on Twitter listing his number one priority as border security which leads to hilarious responses like

I was unaware people in Maryland hated Virginia that much.

Lmao what border? What is Pennsylvania gonna do?

The border is not good!  Delaware shouldn't exist!  Maryland's natural borders are at the sea!

Defend the northern border from those Pennsylvania carpetbaggers!

Trone reportedly spent 60 million of his own money only to lose that primary by 10 points    Of course quite frankly it was getting rather annoying to get an almost daily a flyer in the mail from him, plus constant YouTube ads...

Hopefully Alsobrooke and the Dems, don't take anything for granted and run a very strong campaign going forward, especially in the redder parts of the state..  last thing we need is a bunch of Dems getting all wishy washy and voting for Hogan, who will absolute not be a moderate in the Senate... don't think Baltimore will likely forget how he screwed over the city

one interesting tidbit Alsobrooke got more votes than all of the Republican candidates put together in her primary

[hutch]

How did he screw over Baltimore?

[kosmo vinyl]

off the top of my head he cancelled the expansion of the Red Line in their subway system which would have benefitted the poor areas of Baltimore, and diverted the money by to improve roads in white areas..   

he also cut money going to the Baltimore School system, but then approved money to build a youth jail there..

Much of it laid out here

unfortunately voters rarely do any homework

this is an interesting article, as there were MANY positions Hogan took and Vetoed, but the Vetos were overridden by the state congress
 therefore forgotten by most that he was not with the majority in his stance

https://www.marylandmatters.org/2024/02/26/commentary-a-look-at-larry-hogans-record-on-key-issues/

he tried to veto 44k felons (who were out or on parole) from voting, but congress overruled and reinstated those voters
but shows his colors on how he thinks about giving citizens access to voting (i.e. he only wants those who might vote GOP to have rights)

[hutch]

Yeah pretty atrocious record….funny how he is one of the “good” republicans
