Not sure if this was already discussed but Kim Klacik is not running for governor, and will instead run for congress again, according to a tweet of hers from December of last year.

Which probably means she thinks the last election was "rigged against her" or she lost due to "fraud", or both. And yet republicans will still prop her up because she had that cool ad video and she's running against the Baltimore democratic establishment who has controlled that district for the past 70 years, and will likely continue to control it for as long as I live unless Maryland starts to lose seats.

Remembering all the campaign signs for her that I saw around Cockeysville/Timonium makes me want to vomit. Of course, the key question on everyone's minds is whether Scott Cawthon will donate to her again out of the pure noble white savior reflexes in his heart of hearts.

A Trumpist was bound to jump into the race, considering how the MD GOP has been Trumpified over the last few years.

There's a much better chance that the ILGOP wins their race than the MDGOP. There is almost no chance that Pritzker loses, however there is no chance the GOP holds this seat.

If a corruption scandal emerges, he could lose, or if the Illinois economy spirals.....but that ILGOPer has to be a damn good candidate

Wes Moore just annouced an endorsement from the anne arundel county executive.

He seems like a really interesting and genuine guy, I hope he can break through.

If Steele runs he would be the strongest candidate Republicans can put up but I have a difficult time seeing him getting the nomination.

Democrats are still favored to flip the Governorship.

Steele would be a "strong" candidate but his ceiling is still a loss somewhere in the mid-teens.

Steele is the only candidate with a real chance in the general, but there is absolutely no way he would win the nomination. MD Republicans are way to Trumpy to let him get the nom.

If the MDGOP is Trumpy how did Larry Hogan get the nomination in 2014? How come he was not primaried in 2018 like how Charlie Baker got challenged by Scott Lively and got attacked by Jim Lyons and other far right MAGOP people?

If the gets the nod the governorship will flip. I cannot see him winning a statewide election Maryland. He might even drag down candidates down ballot.

Are there any competitive races downballot? I feel like most races tend to be either safe D or safe R in Maryland.

Maybe a handful of legislative/county races. But yeah, all the congressional races (including Senate) will be safe and there's no doubt that Democrats will continue to control both chambers of the legislature, as they've done for over a century.

It's honestly kind of amazing that Maryland's consistently been a Democratic stronghold through so many different alignments, even as the internal coalitions have shifted.

Likely/Safe D, but Dems should not get cocky. It is a Biden midterm, after all.

It really is. Democrats have held the House of Delegates for all but two years since 1900 and the state senate continuously since.

Actually, MD was not a Democratic stronghold pre-1992.

It voted for the GOP in 1984 and 1988, and went for Carter narrowly enough in 1980. Prior to that, it voted in a landslide for Nixon in 1972, and went for Humphrey only narrowly in 1968. Before which it went for the GOP in 1948 (even as Truman won nationally) and 1952 and 1956. It also went for the GOP from 1920-1928. In 1904 Roosevelt won the actual popular vote in MD by 51 votes. It also voted for McKinely twice. Admittedly, it was solidly blue from 1868-1892.

But before the Civil War it was a solidly Whig (not Democratic) state that went for the the Whig in every election from 1828 (Quincy over Jackson) and 1832, arguably the first race with a Whig and a Democrat (by four votes - the narrowest raw vote margin ever!!) to 1848, inclusive. It only went for the Democrat in 1852, by which time Clay had died and the Whig Party had basically collapsed, with Democratic candidate Pierce winning in a landslide.
