16. The Democratic voters of Maryland have spoken and deserve to have the candidate they chose. They did NOT choose Hogan.

I live in Montana where Tester is a very strong candidate with genuine Montana roots. He has a very strong track record in the Senate on issues which resonate in Montana, such as healthcare and services to veterans and their families.
Sheehy is a rich GOP carpetbagger, a cowboy wannabe who owns a hobby ranch, and it now appears he's been caught in several significant lies.
While the majority of current voters here are registered Republicans they were also during previous campaigns which Tester won by meaningful margins. Sheehy may have the GOP funding but he's anti-abortion in a state with 75% voter approval of a woman's right to choose and a ballot initiative to support that choice as embodied in the state constitution.

While the money always matters, if it needs to be spent in Maryland there is reason to believe it will be worthwhile.
