I very seriously doubt that 49 percent of voters in Maryland have been disenfranchised. But didn't you say this would backfire and more republicans would be elected? It's hard keeping track of your BS. In any case, this is a case of tit-for-tat, which you have stated on many occasions that you approve of. But when Democrats do it, you whine and complain. I say you can get bent.
The best part of this is that the redrawn maps will need to eliminate 2 racially gerrymandered majority minority districts. Race non-essentialism is coming to MD. :)
So, what you're claiming is that past republican governors were elected (in the past) because the voters were angry about a redistricting that hadn't happened yet? Sure, that makes sense🙄
ehrlich and Hogan MD governor election followed redistricting?
Yes, both the 2002 gubernatorial election won by Bob Ehrlich and the 2014 gubernatorial election won by Larry Hogan immediately followed Maryland's decennial redistricting processes.
Because Maryland redraws its legislative and congressional maps following every U.S. Census (years ending in '0'), the gubernatorial elections in years ending in '2' and '4' reflect these newly adjusted boundaries.
Bob Ehrlich (2002 Election)
The Redistricting Context: Following the 2000 U.S. Census, Democratic Governor Parris Glendening led a highly partisan redistricting effort. The maps were specifically configured to disadvantage Republicans. This included redrawing the 2nd Congressional District, which Bob Ehrlich then held as a U.S. Representative, to heavily favor a Democratic candidate.
The Election Outcome: Instead of seeking re-election in his newly altered congressional district, Ehrlich launched a campaign for governor. He defeated Democrat Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, becoming Maryland's first Republican governor in 36 years.
Larry Hogan (2014 Election)
The Redistricting Context: Following the 2010 U.S. Census, Democratic Governor Martin O'Malley oversaw the 2012 redistricting cycle. These maps became nationally famous as some of the most severely gerrymandered boundaries in the United States, particularly reshaping the 6th Congressional District to flip it from Republican to Democratic control.
The Election Outcome: Running in 2014 against the backdrop of voter frustration over tax increases and partisan map-drawing, Larry Hogan won a major upset victory against Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown. Throughout his two terms, Hogan heavily prioritized redistricting reform, pushing for independent citizen map-drawing commissions.
See, the voters aren't as stupid as Democrats think they are.
Correlation isn't causation. The voters had other reasons for voting for Ehrlich and Hogan.
🤖According to Gemini these two republicans were elected for the following reasons...
Bob Ehrlich (2002 Election): The election was a referendum on the highly unpopular outgoing Democratic Governor Parris Glendening. The Democratic nominee, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend (daughter of Robert F. Kennedy), ran a historically flawed, gaffe-prone campaign. Ehrlich won because of independent voter fatigue with Glendening and a weak Democratic candidate, not a backlash over congressional maps.
Larry Hogan (2014 Election): Hogan won a major upset entirely on economic frustration. Governor Martin O'Malley's administration had passed roughly 40 consecutive tax and fee increases, including a highly unpopular "rain tax" (a stormwater management fee). Hogan campaigned heavily on a simple, punchy message: "Change Maryland" and repeal the taxes. Additionally, the Democratic nominee, Anthony Brown, ran a complacent campaign and suffered from low Democratic voter turnout in a year that saw a massive nationwide Republican wave.
👉Why 2026 is Different [than 2002 and 2014].
The Nominee Shift: Hogan and Ehrlich were pragmatic moderates who openly distance themselves from national partisan fringes to build a broad cross-party coalition. However, the winner of the June 2026 Republican Primary is Dan Cox, a hardline conservative heavily aligned with the national populist wing of the GOP.The Independent Factor: While Maryland voters have shown they will gladly vote for a moderate, anti-gerrymandering Republican like Hogan, polling shows they are deeply hesitant to elect a hardline conservative candidate. Head-to-head polling numbers—where Moore leads Cox roughly 49% to 29%—suggest that voter anger over legislative redistricting maps has not translated into widespread support for a populist conservative candidate.
Current Projections: Despite the conservative blogger's prediction, non-partisan electoral analysts like the Cook Political Report still rate the Maryland gubernatorial race as "Solid Democratic". Head-to-head polling indicates Moore maintains a comfortable lead, with roughly 49% to 50% of registered voters favoring him compared to 28% to 29% supporting a generic Republican candidate. Maryland has not ousted an incumbent governor in nearly 80 years.
Despite the intense regional headlines regarding a August 2026 special legislative session over redistricting, Moore maintains a double-digit lead in head-to-head general election projections.🛑
Your prediction that Wes Moore will lose due to voter anger related to redistricting very likely won't bear out.
Gavin Newsom Just Sold Out The Jewish People For A Photo Op With the Radical Communist Anti-Semite Abdul El-Sayed Newsom didn’t even wait for the dust to settle, but the moment Abdul El-Sayed was declared the winner of Michigan’s Democratic Senate primary this week, California’s failure of a governor endorsed him. No pause. No qualifiers. No apparent second thought about who he was climbing into bed with, just endorsing the fellow Loser!.
Newsom’s endorsement came first, and fast, and without even one single word of hesitation, and that is the part that really matters: he is “Allying” with a Radical Communist Anti-semite who supports a Terror Regime and Jihadists. He wants American military support for Israel Completely cut off. Reporters have pressed him on whether Israel has a right to exist as a Jewish state, and he has Refused to answer the simple yes or no question. Lets Face It,this is not a governor who can claim ignorance. Newsom visited Israel less than two weeks after the October 7 massacre, when Hamas terrorists murdered roughly 1,200 people and dragged hundreds more into Gaza as hostages. He met survivors. He talked about Jewish trauma and Jewish security like he understood what was at stake. Words are cheap. Endorsing a Senate candidate who will not affirm Israel’s right to exist is an action NO ONE CAN EXCUSE. , and actions tell you what someone actually believes when the cameras move on.
Ole jersey joe, showing up loaded with lies and quivering in fear that his cherished white privilege is fading away as far more intelligent and compassionate minds take control of the levers of power.
Abdul El-Sayed isn't an antisemite and doesn't want to cut the heads off of people whose religion isn't the same as his. The vast majority of Muslims don't want to cut off heads.
Jeff Foxworthy and Muslims Jeff Foxworthy writes....... Have you ever wondered why it's OK to make jokes about Catholics, Jews, Christians, the Pope, the Irish, the Italians, the Polish, the Hungarians, the Chinese, the French (including French Canadians), the elderly, bad golfers, men/women, blacks/whites, red necks, etc., but it's insensitive to make jokes about the Muslims? Well, it's time to level the playing field and be politically incorrect, by including our friends, the Muslims, on this grandiose list. So Jeff Foxworthy did his part to include the Muslims on his list ... 1. If you grow and refine heroin for a living, but morally object to the use of liquor, you may be a Muslim. 2. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and a $5,000 rocket launcher, but can't afford shoes, you may be a Muslim. 3. If you have more wives than teeth, you may be a Muslim. 5. If you think vests come in two styles, bullet-proof and suicide, you may be a Muslim. 6. If you can't think of anyone that you haven't declared jihad against, you may be a Muslim. 7. If you consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives in your clothing, you may be a Muslim. 8. If you were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses, other than setting off roadside bombs, you may be a Muslim. 9. If you have nothing against women and think every man should own at least four, then you, too, may be a Muslim. 10. If you find this offensive and do not forward it, you are part of the problem here in America … but if you delete this, you are most likely a Muslim. Eishhhhhh
btw, Gemini says that the "jokes" Anonymous attributes to Jeff Foxworthy are not a part of his act.
🤖Gemini: The viral blog comment is completely fake, as comedian Jeff Foxworthy never wrote or performed these jokes, which originated as an old internet chain message. PolitiFact confirmed there is no evidence linking the comedian to this content, and his team has previously debunked the association.🛑
🥸I also asked Gemini what "Eishhhhhh" means and got this response...
🤖Gemini: "Eish" (pronounced "aysh") is a very common South African exclamation used to show a wide range of strong feelings, like surprise, worry, frustration, or regret. Stretching out the end ("eishhhhhh") usually means a bigger delay, deeper stress, or heavy disbelief.🛑
