When I pulled up to the middle school, there was a table set up outside under a big shade tree with three ladies sitting behind it. Some American flag decorations on it and some pamphlets. As I made my way by it towards the school entrance I said:
"Hi ladies--what affiliation are you, sitting under this tree?" And they said: "Democrats."
And I said: "Have a nice day, ladies." They mumbled something. Since I saw the flags, I thought maybe they were Tea Party.
Then inside, when asked for party, I said "Tea Party." And all of them almost fell over. The old man taking my info didn't know what to say, so I said "Do you have Republican Party here in Montgomery County?"
"Yes." I said fine. Ha.
I would imagine just about that distance. If I knew the law, I would have walked the distance off.
Since I saw the flags, I thought maybe they were Tea Party.
The flag is just a prop the commies use at certain times of the year.
It`s going to another runoff.
I was asked today for my address and DOB —just the month and day. Usually, I am just asked my name.
I have never been, in all of my years of voting, asked for ID.
Elect Anthony Brown & a LOT more folk WILL be leaving town (Maryland)!
Well, I am afraid that I see Anthony Almost Brown as our next gov.
Hogan, the GOP nominee, seems like a good guy. He seems competant and earnest. But, here in Maryland, where the urban population density areas, particularly Baltimore and large parts of Prince Georges County, choose our governor, white boy Hogan does not stand a chance.
The Republican Party could have had a chance if Lollard, a black man, had been elected. It’s just a political reality that many black democrats would have voted for him in the general just because he is black.
When Ehrlich was elected governor in 2002 it was because he had a black man as a running mate. Black Dems defected from the party to elect him.
As I said, Hogan is good. But so is Lollar. I have liked Lollar ever since I first saw him on TV. He is a good and decent man, he has many good ideas, and he has passion. Hogan came across in the debates as very pro-business and practical. But, as I said, white boy is not going to get the votes.
If Maryland’s Rep Party really cared and wanted to win, they would have gotten behind Lollar.
One man’s story on primary day . . .
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
I feel your pain. I live in a supposed “red” county.
Not “red” when you look at the budget.
Not any more. She’s moved.
I voted for Lollar.
Ron George is smarmy. Hogan was ok (just ok).
David Craig tried to take credit for creating 8000 jobs in Harford Co. It was BRAC that did that - not David Craig.
And he put out one whopper of a deceitful mailer about Lollar a couple of days before the election.
I have lost a lot of respect for David Craig.
I voted for Lollar also.
So sorry to hear that about Craig. He had me fooled. But Lollar was my man. I hope he stays in the political arena. Would love to see him face off against Mikulsi, the RED DWARF.

Yep, like they have taken over the flag lapel pins.
Agree with you on the bond measures. Other than local bond and school board issues, there is the fact that the government claims legitimacy for all it does, because it is elected. You know, the same argument Saddam Hussein used. The government's claim to "representing the will of the people" is weakened when the people don't vote, and otherwise refuse to recognize the government.
My daughter moved out of state. When we got her state voter guide, I called to ask when she is removed. (It’s only been two years) I was told that they have no mechanism for MVA to notify the Board of Election when someone cancels their residency.
I asked if that wasn’t a recipe for fraud. She agreed and was clearly disgusted. My daughter had to send a letter to self-remove.
So.... so hard to read a post starting with so.
Hang on... Maryland is so leftist does it even make sense to go out and vote?
Should vote against those too
