Pretty incredible how the Maryland GOP got utterly annhilated in all the major county executive races even with Hogan romping in all of them. They ran 40 points behind him in Baltimore County, Anne Arundel and Frederick.
Hogan's performance had quite literally no downballot coattails.
He scored his party a net gain of 1 seat in State Senate races, with 2 gains (1 in Clinton territory, 1 in Trump territory), and 1 loss (in Clinton territory). There were downballot coattails.
Ironically, this is not the 1st time in recent memory where a party gained seats in the Maryland State Senate while the national environment had tilted heavily in the other direction. Democrats took a net gain of 2 seats in the Maryland State Senate in 2010.
