Elections In Maryland On Tuesday July 19

If the Dobbs decision has any impact on us, it should be to drive home all the more that local elections are just as important (if not more so) than federal elections.  Maryland will hold its primary elections this Tuesday, July 19.  Every local seat, from the governor on down to county governments, is up for grabs.  Of course, on the Federal level, every House seat is up and Chris Van Hollen's US Senate seat is up for grabs.  He's running again, but as St. Peter said when the Eleven were about to select a replacement for Judas, "may another take his office".

I won't address the Democrats too much since they are all rabid pro-aborts who take their marching orders and talking points from "on high" - or "on low", as the case may be.  I also won't try to address all the races on various ballots - just the ones that will be on my ballot.  If you are reading this post, you have the capacity to google your various candidates and do your own due-diligence research.

As governor, Bob Hogan's performance has been a lackluster disappointment.  However, we must remind ourselves of the havoc that would have been wreaked had self-styled socialists taken the State House.  We have the opportunity to change that - and no, not via Kelly Schultz.  I am casting my vote for Dan Cox.  He has stood for us against the vax and mask mandates, for common-sense border control, for our Second Amendment rights, and for the babies.  He is endorsed by Maryland Right to Life PAC.  For US Representative, I am voting for Neil Parrott for the same reasons.  Also endorsed by MD Right to Life PAC is Michael Peroutka.  He and his brother Steve have often taught courses on the United States Constitution and supported pro-life efforts in Maryland.

As far as the Maryland state legislature goes, MD Right to Life endorsed no candidate for districts located in Montgomery County.  I am not surprised.  No GOP candidates appear on the official sample ballot that I received.  I believe the same situation exists for Prince George's County.

For the United States Senate race, there are eight candidates vying for the chance to be the GOP nominee for that office.  MD Right to Life PAC states that a number of them espouse pro-life positions.   That is true.  Thus, to make a selection, one must look at candidate positions on other issues.  That should be possible to do by googling their names.

I am in Montgomery County and can tell you that Mark Elrich simply must be ousted as County Executive.  Via his diktats, Montgomery exercised the most draconian rule over its citizenry by ridiculous mask mandates that went well over the national and state bounds.  He pulled police officers from troubled county schools and put in "social workers".   When the Dobbs draft opinion was leaked, he promised to divert our tax dollars, $1 million to be precise, towards abortion funding.

I will be voting for Reardon Sullivan as the GOP nominee for County Executive.  In all other county slots, the candidates are unopposed.

The Montgomery County Education Association is a branch of the progressive National Education Association.  If you want hints for whom to vote, download their "apple ballot".  Then compare that ballot to your official sample ballot and make sure you vote for the "apple ballot" opponents.  This one now shows the Board of Education candidates for whom you should not vote - rather, vote their opponents.  This is necessary to keep out "critical race theory", gay-indoctrination, etc.

See you at the polls!
