Johnny Wood was against it from the beginning. When I was in his office he didn't even want to talk about it stating he was against the whole thing.
Same with Tony O'Donnell.
Now the POS Bohanan got a pass from MOM and others after they knew they had enough votes to pass. Just look at his voting record on any of the ammendments and he voted the wrong way.
Roy Dyson was opposed to it and has enough senority he didn't need a pass from MOM and others to vote against it.
All that said Johnny Wood is going to retire and not running. There is only 1 Democrat running (Slade) and I don't thing there will be a problem beating him in the general election.
Of the 3 Republicans running it's a tough call for me.
"Puff" Barthelme looks to be a RINO and was on the Democratic central committee at one time. He's catching some flak from his "Keep Waldorf in Waldorf" ads. He's defiantly got more signs and hitting all the right campaign spots.
Matt Morgan ran before and I believe it was a close race back then. He’s got more support from the local Republican club. Don’t know much else about him and am trying to find out.
Tommy McKay kind of threw his hat in the ring at the last minute and might be another possible choice. A lot of people don’t like him but I can’t say he’s made any bad decisions as far as when he was a county commissioner.
Deb Ray is a Republican running against Bohanan. I don’t believe she has anyone else running in the primary against her.
Last but not least it looks like everyone wants Roy’s spot. I’ve never had a problem with him and the job he’s done even with a D after his name.
Larry Jarboe is running for the Republican spot to oppose Dyson. I think he’s got some good ideas and like the way he thinks sometimes but he doesn’t always come across correctly with those ideas and thoughts
Steve Waugh from Calvert ran before and only lost by 1280 votes overall and won Calvert by 700 votes. I know absolutely nothing else about him.
Cindy Jones, current County Commissioner is running also. Don’t know much about her either.
I’ve thrown a lot out here and hope some others will jump in and fill some of the gaps and add comments.

Roy Dyson sponsored SB966 this past session, which repleals sunday hunting from Saint Marys
I have reasons to not support Dyson this time around, but to claim that he "repealed sunday hunting" is a little disingenuous. SB966 only disallows Sunday hunting under a deer management permit. Doesn't change the regular hunting season AFAICT.

I just moved here so that's great information, thanks Chief!

It's true Puff was a Democrat. However he says he didn't leave the Party the Party left him. At one time in St. Mary's, the local elections were decided in the primary. If one was not a Democrat your vote didn't count. I can remember back in 1973 when I registered Independent (at that time in Maryland Independent was not a party, it was the only other option if one didn't want to go R or D. Over the years I got changed to Declined and then Unaffiliated) my parents had a fit, telling me I would have no say in local elections. Does it really matter what letter is behind your name as long as you have conservative values ie Johnny Wood? Interesting that he's catching flak for his Waldorf stance; must be from the influx of people relocated here from more urban areas due to BRAC. I for one do not want the mess that is Waldorf and St. Charles down here.
which district are you in? Info over here may help - http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?p=3073380#post3073380
You can help by supporting candidates in those districts who support gun rights

29A, B, C not a problem according to the chart.
Matt Morgan is a good guy. He lives in my neighborhood and he stopped by my house last election cycle. If i can find his reply to my email (from last election) re. 2A I will post it. The tl;dr was he supports concealed carry, gun ownership and is generally pro-gun.
Yeah, it looks like those district races will come down to the General Election. I just moved the remaining votes for those from the TODO list into the district.
On the Senate side - It looks like Dyson won by a small margin in 2010, and the 2012 funding numbers from followthemoney show just $2,775 raised. I don't have any info on 2013 funding.
On the House side for 2010 - 2 of the 3 General Election votes were very close. O'Donnell won by a larger margin on the 3rd
2010 General election vote counts - http://www.elections.state.md.us/elections/2010/results/Primary/index.html
One could still go DINO to vote for/against (D) candidates in the primary of other races like the Governor or Attorney General; strategy there is TBD
As well as voting for union wages for school construction and against marijuana decriminalization.
Anybody know if Dyson sponsored any Pro-2A bills?
Edit: found one! It is about training rifle shooters to hunt deer

Same here...and I don't think its ever been more important.
I even became a DINO because of it
Don't forget, Murphy was the sponsor of the gun bill in the House. He voted against it finally, but like others say, he was give the pass since they knew it was going to pass.
I talked to him after wards, and he said he voted against it because he did not like it. Hell, it was not as tough as the one he sonspored. He sould have been exhausted after the 1.5 hours talking, all he did was tap dance around everything I ask. He now is going to run for County Commissioner President. He screwed the pooch at the state level, so he wants to do more at the county level.
