They have no life— pretty obvious. Other than the cabal, lol.

Here is Maryland and Lincoln (exhaustive, as well as Lincoln with any other State, or group):

John S Mosby: "They have no life — pretty obvious.

Actually, I do still have a life in semi-retirement -- of service, hard work and some risk, and it explains why I'm sometimes gone from a thread for "weeks and months afterwards".

But posters like FLT-bird flatter themselves to think I am focused ("obsessed") on just them.
Instead, I merely review CW threads looking for unanswered pro-Confederate lies, and when I find one I answer it.
So FLT-bird at one point challenged me to see if he could tell more lies than I can correct.
Turns out he couldn't, but it did take me "weeks and months" between other "life" activities, to answer all of his many, many Civil War lies.

And that's what he's still complaining about to this day!

As I've posted now several times: you guys can get rid of us today, all you have to do is stop lying about the Civil War.
Why is that too much to ask?

I noticed your link says Bell beat out Breckenridge in Maryland by a small margin.
This link says Breckenridge came out on top by less than 1%.

But if we think of the votes for Bell, Douglas & Lincoln as pro-Union votes, then Unionists defeated Breckenridge voters in Maryland 54% to 46%.

Regardless, when push came to shove the votes were much more lopsided -- Maryland's legislature voted four-to-one against secession and Marylanders served the Union army two-to-one over the Confederate army.
When Lee's army invaded Maryland in 1862 they expected to rally large numbers of Marylanders to their side, but it didn't happen.

As in other border states, the solid majority of Marylanders were Unionists.
