The Maryland Democratic Party filed a complaint late Tuesday alleging that the campaign of Republican gubernatorial nominee Larry Hogan is, in effect, not paying full fare for its campaign bus.
For the past three months, as he pursues an upset victory over Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown (D), Hogan has been traveling the state in a rock-star-sized recreational vehicle adorned with his campaign logo.
The vehicle was purchased personally by Hogan, an Anne Arundel County businessman, and his campaign is reimbursing the candidate $683.77 a month for its use, according to Hogan spokesman Adam Dubitsky. That’s the equivalent of Hogan’s monthly payment on the RV, which Dubitsky called perfectly reasonable.
In the complaint, however, the Democrats contend that the payment is far less than the “fair-market value” of the vehicle. And under elections law, the party says, that’s what the campaign should be paying for the bus.

Md is systematically destroyed by a socialist political party. It is time we outlawed all political parties antithetical to our federal and state constitutions. There is no freedom to destroy freedom.
So... he’s not taking enough money for himself from the campaign funds. Only a Democrat could complain about that.
Gee! I’d rent one for that price and take a nice vacation!
I have heard of a Hogan from MD before, but who is this one? Wasn’t there an ex-congressman, but that was some time ago? I haven’t followed any MD politics in years.
From his website:

Larry Hogan is not a career politician. He is a small businessman, a concerned citizen, and a lifelong Marylander who loves this state.
Hogan is the Founder, President, and CEO of The Hogan Companies, a leader in economic development for over 25 years, and has brought hundreds of businesses and thousands of jobs to Maryland. He clearly understands how government policy can have an impact on business growth and job creation.

I’ll vote for him, but I am not getting my hopes up. The Rats have a stranglehold on my beautiful state of Maryland. Hogan’s running mate is black, but the Rat gubernatorial candidate is black-ish—even whiter than Obamugabe— and identity politics rules in the Rat party.
BTW, Lollar, my choice and a wonderful black conservative man, ran against Hogan in the primary. He did quite well, but Hogan did a little better. I have nothing against Hogan, but I think that the urban black vote would have crossed over for Lollar.
Hogan was a much better debater than Lollar, but that will not matter in the general.
Whiney democrats are filing a complaint again.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
