considerations in voting for Trone, who has been a good Congressman and was also endorsed by Hakeem Jeffries!

As a Montanan by birth, I wanted for the DSCC to be able to contribute more to Jon Tester's Senate campaign in MT.

Both MD Senate candidates were good ones. But the ithe idea of not having to spend DSCC $$$ in a generally safe BLUE state like MD was a BIG nfluence on my primary vote. I will vote for Alsobrooks in the GE, of course,

In the end, the state's Dems - including Trone - will be solidly behind Alsobrooks. Yes, Hogan was a saner GOPer than most but that was in good part b/c the MD legislature also kept him in check.

But the use of DSCC $$ for MD could hurt other candidates in more vulnerable races.
