Wes Moore leads Dan Cox in Md. Gov. race by 2-to-1 margin, Post-UMD poll finds

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Maryland Democrat and political newcomer Wes Moore holds a 32-percentage-point lead over Donald Trump-aligned Republican Dan Cox in the governor’s race five weeks before Election Day, a Washington Post-University of Maryland poll finds.

Moore, a veteran and best-selling author, appears to have consolidated support among the Democrats who make up the majority of the electorate, with the poll finding 86 percent of registered Democrats saying they would vote for him if the election were held today.

But 22 percent of registered Republicans also say they would vote for him in November, leaving Cox with a slim path to victory.

“The election is still far enough away for a number of things to change, but given the fundamental features of this race, unless there is a shocking revelation, it is hard to see how Cox can win,” said Michael Hanmer, director of the University of Maryland’s Center for Democracy and Civic Engagement, which co-sponsored the poll.

1. Outgoing Repub governor has stopped short of endorsing Moore, but has called Cox . . . .

. . . . a "QAnon Whackjob"

I am hoping for Moore coattails to put Heather Mizeur ahead of the detestable Andy Harris. This is her second go at him. She is much more a person of that district than he, having been born and raised in a rural part of the district and having served a part of it in House of Delegates. Harris is a rwnj who appeals to the racists there.

We shall see.
