Breaking: Hogan ahead

[redeemed.man]

I too hope that Hogan wins, but I'm not sure he will be able to get the legislature to overturn any gun laws that were passed in the last couple of years because the Dems will likely still have majorities at Annapolis. But he can certainly try to prevent any new laws from being passed, especially if the Dems don't have enough votes to override his veto.

Go Hogan!

He said he would play goalie. That is enough for me considering the other alternative. I have voted and I voted Hogan.

 

[Mr H]

all the more reason to get out the vote, and turn over the GA seats as much as possible

 

[Rack&Roll]

Headed out this morning to sign wave for Hogan on Rowe Blvd to get up and close and personal to wobbly Democraps.

Give me a quadruple honk if you are MDS!

The intuitive posts in this thread are gone. Numbers don't lie. Unless there are areas with all day free BBQ, Malt Liquor and spontaneous craps games, Brown is a lock. It is a pity and one time I'd be glad to be wrong though.

What a governor can do, is make a gubernatorial proclaimation: "That self defense is a good and substantial reason."

I wonder if Hogan has the cojones to do that?

That's all a governor can do. He can also define what "good and substantial" is. If he says self defense is a "good and substantial" reason to issue a MD permit, then it will be.....

Not to be coy, but I'll be coy...

One of those "glass 3/4 empty kind of guy" huh?

I guess...

We're down to the wire, and everyone should be working to do what we can to make this happen.

On the bus, or under it are our only choices right now.

Missing it, is unacceptable! People need to get out and vote...

My final contributions to the effort will begin at 3pm after schools let out so I can install this truck load of signs at 6 polling places and will end after a full day working a yet to be determined poll all day tomorrow. Never let go of the hawk's throat until he swallows hard enough to break your grip.

And keep punching all the way down!
Maybe he'll puke you back up.

Your signs will be up when you arrive at your location tomorrow. Stay thirsty my friend.

I'll be working up a thirst doing the sign thing in 42A.

Should I pick up anything special for you at Shawan Liquors?

ICYMI: Todd Eberly went through the numbers here: http://freestaterblog.blogspot.com/


Basically, Hogan could win by 2 or lose by 5 depending on who shows up at the polls.

CNN as been publicizing close races on tv all morning and now include Maryland's governor's race in the contested pool.

I used that to motivate another person to go vote.

Last day, last chance to push those apathetic people to the polls.

A lot of younger folks don't seem to be voting at all. Many of my friends aren't, despite me being so vocal about it... A few aren't even registered.

Then again, young folks tend to vote Dem...

There's been some reporting recently that they're becoming increasingly disaffected, and are not the reliable Ds they were even 2 years ago.

Many are either not voting, or going R this year. Either way, it's a plus.

It's not just young people.

I work with some really smart older people who didn't even know there was an election tomorrow.

They were easily swayed to Hogan but without some peer pressure to vote they would happily ignore the election altogether. A few of them probably just gave lip service and will not vote anyway.
Democracy in decline.
