Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsJust so you know, this was a Republican **general election** challenger to Steny Hoyer in 2014.
Even in a heavily Democratic district, he managed to get 80,000 votes, or 35% of the vote total.
He ran again for the Republican nomination for US Senate in Maryland in 2018 and finished within a few thousand votes of challenging Sen. Ben Cardin in the general election.
Posted just today. The level of ignorance is staggering.
