[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, it's a Mid-Atlantic state. So sick of the outdated Mason Dixon argument. [/quote]Why are you sick of it.  That is the definition and it doesn't matter how you feel about it.[/quote]

Mkay, no. Definitions from yesterday don't necessarily define today. [/quote]Yeah, they really do.  Especially in this case.[/quote]

Marylanders don’t agree with you.

Despite the Census laws defining Maryland as a Southern Atlantic state - the vast majority of Marylanders consider themselves to be living in a northern state.

Politically, Maryland has much more in common with New England mindsets than southern states. [/quote]

That’s interesting. I wonder how many of these Marylanders that you speak of are actually transplants?  
What would Andy Harris say?

I dunno but it could go either way … Dr Harris was burn in Brooklyn of immigrant parents, and is a GOP physician activist in Annapolis.  You should ask his office and let us know. He sounds like a thoughtful and intelligent person.

My best guess is he would land somewhere similar to a  nuanced PP  - technically southern but it’s complicated. Most people are more black and white (which he might appreciate as a physician is probably connected to our brain physiology/ dualistic interpretation of reality).

Politically and culturally most Marylanders seem to identify more with northern state values and mind sets even if originally they were the northern most of the slave-holding southern states.
