Sounds phony big time. Dems trying to make him sound desperate.
That sounds pretty fake. That letter is so bad it would discourage me from voting.
I got the same email.
Don't worry, Gov', I'll be voting this afternoon.
How about a look at the headers on that there email?
"O'Malley for Gov" should be enough incentive for any thinking Marylander to get out and vote for Ehrlich.
This is bogus. First, internal polling does not indicate the status of turnout. The poll watchers who are in the precincts should know whether our voters have actually voted. Second, it is highly unlikely that a candidate would make such a request. It would be made by a campaign chair.
Frederick County is doing its part (a Red stronghold in a sea of blue) - local radio says Frederick County may have a 70-something percent turnout.
I didn't get the email, but am getting really fricking sick of the daily phone call recordings. I've now gotten *three* of them today. On my CELL PHONE. And I don't have the slightest idea about who to complain to.
I called the Ehrlich campaign and the person who answered the phone (who may or may not know anything) did say the email was authentic.
Having said that, I was at Howard Co HQ and we are very busy and the talk is that turnout in Carroll and Howard is up and Baltimore City is light.
Further, watching the news coverage of the final rallies, Ehrlich said we will win and win big and O'malley never mentioned winning.
I conclude, that we are ahead and winning and this email was poorly written.
The only thing that concerns me is that O'Malley's party is at the hippodrome which is a first class place along with Ehrlich's being at the Hyatt which is also first class. In other words, both sides are expecting a big party. Often, a loser has a modest place for a party and that is not the case on either side.
Bump to Maryland voters
My polling place is busier than 2004. I'm in central Anne Arundel County in a moderately-Republican district.
My wife and I went at different times, and we both had a short wait to vote, which didn't happen to us in 2004.
