4 reactions:
1. Holy sh*t, the Democrat meltdown is moving into the apocalypse-now phase.
2. Maryland's voters probably include the highest % of dedicated partisan Democrats of any state in the country.
3. Maryland has no voter-ID -- none at all. People just walk up and say who they are. Sometimes they are asked to verbally provide some other piece of information -- address, date-of-birth, etc. -- and sometimes not. But under no circumstances do they have to show any form of identification. So the "Voter Suppression" angle will have to be abandoned in explaining this.
4. Martin O'Malley's plan/wish to run in the Democrat primaries of 2016 may need to be … re-evaluated.

It's so bad but I...can't...stop...watching
That is almost as bad as listening to the MSNBC talking heads.
Speaking of which -- they broke straight to commercial with no transitional during Tillis' victory speech. lol

Washington State: Background checks and gun shows and online has passed.
HOWEVER ...... another measure to PROHIBIT background checks and confiscation of firearms ... has WON.
Lefties throw a hook ... righties bob, weave, and land an uppercut.

The GOP retains the governorship in Maine too. The GOP governor candidates are crushing it in deep blue territory.

Watch (on MSNBC and like-minded outlets) for the "hidden homophobia" argument to explain this one.

RE: Open Thread - Election 2014
GOP Governorship Wins:
- Maine
- Maryland
- Ohio
- Michigan
- Wisconsin
- Illinois
- Nevada
- Colorado
GOP Governorship Leads:
- Massachusetts, by 28,000 votes with 87% reporting
GOP Governorship Close Trailing:
- Vermont, trailing by 3,000 votes with 76% reporting
- Connecticut, trailing by SEVEN (7!!!) votes with 60% reporting
Of the 50 states ... the Democrats may be down to less than 16 governorships. NH, NY, RI, PA, MN, CA, OR, WA, MT, MO, KY, WV, VA, DE, HI is what they for sure hold right now.
