In what once seemed a slam dunk race for Democrats in a state where their voters outnumber registered Republicans by 53 percent to 26 percent, Marylands Democratic Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown finds himself in a tighter-than-expected race for governor with Republican Larry Hogan Jr., a small-businessman and cabinet secretary to the last GOP governor (Bob Ehrlich, who served 2002-06). What youre seeing is a reaction to the OMalley-Brown administration raising taxes by a record $10 billion over eight years and in the process driving 8,688 small businesses and 200,000 jobs from our state, Hogan told Newsmax over the weekend. So, voters in Maryland, whatever their party loyalty, are showing a willingness to listen to and try something different.
