It's not a Black governor people object to, but a progressive one. If Baker had been the nominee last time around, rather than Jealous, Hogan wouldn't exist.

What’s come out so far about the Bronze Star, fake Baltimore roots, etc. is nothing compared to what the GOP has planned this fall.

This guy had the gall to tell the Rhodes Scholar committee that he was a member of the “Maryland College Football Hall of Fame,” which doesn’t even exist.

I see that stated a lot around 2010 or so. But I can't find any record of such a hall of fame either. I found several other halls of fame, and can't find him in any inductee searches.

Antony Brown is not “progressive”, just an incompetent dud.

Please try to get through to them that we need to vote Blue at all levels of government, to protect girls and women, and to prevent the country being awash in guns. Pick the most centrist Democrat if you want.

Who is going to look out for our kids? Which of the Democrats will admit that closing schools for over a year was a bad idea? Which of the Democrats will stand up against any type of vaccine mandates for kids (and adults)?

The Democrats let our kids down during Covid. I need to see some acknowledgment of that failure.

You'd vote for Dan Cox because some Democrat closed schools? Yikes, you sound very intelligent

DP who will not vote for Cox but too many democrats still have their head in the sand about how closing schools will cost them. People tend to vote on the issues that have affected them the most.

And yeah, I’m on a neighborhood progressive listserv where folks are still gunning for the most progressive candidate and squabbling over whether Perez or King would be better. They are horrified about Franchot (and Goldberg for county council) and have questions about Moore’s bonafides. I do t have a lot of confidence about winning in November.

Which part? I think his autobiography was full of lies. He was slippery than a snake dodging questions

Franchot sizes up quite well against Schulz

I think Moore does just fine too without the Franchot baggage. The rest of the group would lose to Schulz and a few, like King, could even lose to Cox.

No...absolutely not.

There's only one candidate, a literal socialist (Jerome Segal, polling at less than 1%) and even then, I'm not so sure.

You underestimate just how unlikable Trump republicans are in MD to the overall electorate. Dan Cox is a Trump backed official that has no appeal outside of the Eastern Shore, Western MD and parts of Southern MD. He would perform historically awful in, PG, Baltimore County, the City, Charles, Howard, AA and MoCo. Practically any Democrat would beat him in an election, which is why Dems are itching to run against him. He has shown no inclination to moderate his Trumpist views like say a Youngkin in VA.

He's the MD equivalent of Amanda Chase and would all but ensure a Democrat victory in November if he were nominated.
