    Vallario has 5 democrat opponents in his district... Well, you know the rest.

    Dumais has 4 democrat opponents in her district...

    Might be a lot more fun to just get a different democrat in actually.

    Can you imagine going to their campaign events and talking about that vote reversal last year...? On not allowing criminals to reduce their time served of it was with a gun? Wonder how the folks down there in MoCo would take to that?

    Rushern Baker (PGCo Executive) today endorsed Marvin Holmes and Thea Wilson for the two 23B seats over Vallario. Wilson is a challenger. I don't know anything about Wilson and I bet I wouldn't agree with her any more than I do Vallario. But on the notion that anybody associated with the FSA must go, DINOs and Dems, there's your primary vote.

    If my link (or the attempt at one) works this looks very interesting for District 17 and may help spell the end for Simmons.

    Looks like the "link" did not come up like I wanted. Lame computer skills...

    Anyway, the DINOs in 17 need to step up and help Kagan at this point to dump Simmons who was a huge supporter of FSA2013.

    Oops, looks like the link did work, enjoy.

    Good info folks! Thanks for the posts! I plan to get these into the OP's on Friday, along with getting more Votes from the TODO section processed. D15 and D17 look to be places where we can make specific suggestions on DINO strategies

    Reminder to all (and to no one in particular)...

    This is great information that's being amassed. I would venture this has never been done before, and you should all be very confident that it will be positive.

    But, not a bit of it will be useful until and unless it is passed 'beyond these walls'. This is information folks need to share with everyone in their districts, and work the backchannels to make sure it's known.

    Just talking among ourselves isn't going to do a whole lot.

    Have at'em!

    For anyone considering changing their voting party affiliation (DINO strategy), it looks like the cutoff is June 3rd. If you change after that time, it will not take effect until after this years primary election.

    Edit:
    If you change after that time, you can still vote with a provisional ballot

    Either way, Simmons is out as a Delegate and off of Judiciary, but I agree, no need for him to possibly end up on Judicial Proceedings in the Senate.

    I would suggest that some careful thought is required on how to proceed here. My thought is that we would be better off with Valario right where he is until after we can be SURE that Dumais is gone. If he is put out and she remains to assume the chair, .....:sad20:

    You can change affiliation on the day of the primary. You will vote a provisional ballot that will be counted separately. Reason is change of party.

    Thanks! That is great news! I did not see that out on the web site. It must be there somewhere...

    Anyone aware of districts where a RINO strategy would be helpful? Apparently there are some (R) candidates who people are not happy with

    I've been trying to look into the (R) candidates in D-4. With Hough entering the race I'm not sure which way the vote will go

    And THIS will help ...

    From the Sunpapers of all places ... of course, they want Frosh to win.

    Couldn't he have at least voted 'present'. :sarcasm:

    Well, he wasn't at either bill presentations (that were HIS) that I went to Annapolis to testify specifically about. I did catch him in his office one day, and got to talk to him on his way out of the building for another meeting. Hmmmm, guess THAT was a campaign meeting too.

    This is a tough call for a DINO. I am voting for the other guy - not Frosh. Too bad his name isn't just Notfroshorcardin, that would be easy to remember :)
