So, NO I don't vote for someone because of their race. Plus, Maryland has always been a demoratic state..Erlich only won because the last Governor was corrupt, cheated on his wife, and closed down a number of juvenile facilities!!

I've always respected you, SS. My respect just went up. I'm glad you hold to your convictions when voting. TKD
