[quote=Anonymous]I'd argue that Trump is one of the causes for the further left progressives getting a hold on MOCO. Trump is so despicable and the Republicans enabling are not much better in their inaction that many centrist leaning Democrats can not stomach voting for anyone with R next to their name. Hogan is incredibly lucky that Ben Jealous was not only a bad candidate but a completely incompetent campaigner. If you look at the voting break down most of MOCO went for Jealous even though in other times these voters would have never considered voting for someone so bad. Trump has opened the door for progressives to wiggle in and grab a disproportionate number of seats in comparison with the voters that actually agree with their positions. While previously R stronghold areas are moving to centrist Democrats, traditional Democratic strongholds are moving to progressives. [/quote]
