Maryland Gubernatorial Elections (2002-2018)

Does anyone know what percentage of the black and Hispanic vote Hogan got last year? I'm stunned by how well he did in Baltimore City.

lost Hispanics 52-47 and blacks 71-28.

I'm assuming Hogan is the first GOPer to get close to 30% among African Americans since Agnew in 1966 right ?

Ehrlich won 14% of African Americans in 2002, then 16% in 2006 & I think 13% in 2010 ?

I should note that then-NJ Governor Tom Kean, Sr., (R) won 11% of African Americans in 1981 & later got a whopping 62% in 1985.

Christine Todd Whitman (R) won 25% of African Americans in 1993 & later 17% in 1997.

Christie got 9% in 2009 & later improved to 21% in 2013.

Hogan is the GOP version of JBE ?

Sounds like the MD GOP is going to hit rock bottom when Hogan leaves office on January 18th, 2023.

When's the last time the MD GOP controlled both chambers of the MD General Assembly ?

The big question is whether Rutherford has the stomach or guts to run for Government House (Residence of the MD Governor) when Hogan is term limited in 2022 ?

[LoneStarDem]

MD GOP has no good options in 2022.
