So, MD has NEVER gone REP?
“So, MD has NEVER gone REP?”
I love that we’re talking about MD! Somehow the fact that we’re thinking about strategy at all in the deep blue states, makes a change of heart in places like my state - Washington State - seem possible...go McKenna (Gov. WA - R).
Of course OH, and PA are huge today...and all the other swing states...
We've had some Republican governors. But Baltimore is an open sewer of crime, filth, and corruption, and generates a huge number of Dem votes. The collar counties around DC are immovably liberal: Prince George's County is mostly black, while Montgomery County is full of Latinos, blacks, illegals, other minorities, and prosperous, educated white leftists. Howard County is a peaceful and beautiful county with mostly conservative voters except for the educated white liberal city of Columbia. So the state is going to be stuck liberal forever because the high-population areas outvote the conservative and normal areas that are geographically far larger but less populated and less organized.
Over the last 30-40 years you can count them on one hand. Recently there was a one term governor (Ehrlich) and there was Spiro Agnew back in the 70s!
