Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan's pointed attacks on Democrats who overturned his veto of expanded voting rights for felons appear to have tapped into a current of anger among some state residents, who are sending hate mail and making threatening phone calls to lawmakers who voted for the override.

Maryland Senate
33 Democrats, 14 Republicans

Maryland House of Delegates\
Democrats 91, Republicans 50

Most of the rats refuse to act for the people and are under the hard thumb of the leadership.

The people voted strong for Hogan but the General Asylum is still in rat hands.

This place is so corrupt that the Senate office building is named after the current sitting Senate President for Life Mike V. Miller

The claim that all 900,135 registered voters in cuyahoga County, OH voted for Hussein is not true.

Here are the official results:

Cordially,

The commie Washington Post runs through its lefty paces:

Democrats are poor victims

Non lefties are evil, violent, mean, threatening.

What the...?

I recall the funny business in Ohio, but this? No way.

I just looked it up.
In fact, Mitt Romney received 30.12% of the vote in Cuyahoga County.

The facts and truth of the 2012 election are appalling enough. And readily available. Whoever created this nonsense at floridapoliticalpress.com had to have done so knowingly.

I can see no logical explanation for the swill in this graphic being an honest mistake. I have no idea who these people are (do you?) Anyone one dealing in such blatant falsehood is no ally.

You assume that someone else won’t vote for them.

“If someone has ‘paid their penalty’...they should have all of their rights restored, including the right to vote and the right to own and carry firearms.”

If part of that penalty is a lifetime loss of voting rights and firearm possession, then they will have only paid that penalty when they’re dead. Anything else is a form of amnesty.

They should have considered the consequences before raping that woman.

When they stand before God, the charges will be read, and they will be convicted.

According to the Bible, the process will be far simpler than that.

Without the black underclass/criminal vote, white liberal elites would have a hard time being elected country dog catchers.

And they know it...

White liberal elites keep political control from the black underclass and criminal class by creating ‘superdelegates’... that way THEY and only THEY pick who runs and represents the party.

It’s also why Bernie doesn’t have a snowballs chance in hell unless white liberal elites decide Hillary’s too toxic...

They should have considered the consequences before raping that woman. Why let allow a person back out around the general population if they can't be trusted? Do you really believe such a person will not obtain a weapon due to the "life time ban?" If you can't return them to society and trust them with weapons then either lock them up for life or execute them.

Many of Maryland’s legislators are defense attorneys. Their legislative job is only for 3 months a year.

Thanks God they only work 90 days a year. Could you imagine the damage a full time legislature made up of these clowns could do?
