Toppling an incumbent

A few weeks back I spoke about District 37A, positing that Rudy Cane can be beaten. This stemmed from a Wicomico County Republican Club meeting where we were introduced to GOP hopeful Bob McCarroll.

While this district is a crazy-quilt district (check out this example of gerrymandering) set up originally to protect the most liberal Eastern Shore Democrat as a majority-minority district, recent development has changed the demographics and made this a prime chance for pickup. So if you live in the area between Cambridge and Salisbury (also encompassing Hurlock, East New Market, Vienna, Sharptown, and Hebron) you can help get your area better representation in Annapolis.

To that end, Bob McCarroll, who is running for Delegate in 37a, would like to hold an organization meeting for his campaign either this week or next. If any one would like to help get this campaign off the ground please e-mail him at b_a_mccarroll@yahoo.com. He is shooting for Saturday, April 17, but is flexible if other dates work for those interested.

While it’s not a “perfect” conservative to liberal spectrum, just knowing that Rudy Cane ranks just outside the bottom 10 in the monoblogue Accountability Project shows he votes far to the left of what an Eastern Shore legislator should. Too often he votes in lockstep with delegates from Baltimore City and Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties – and we see how well those areas are run.

So the question for District 37A voters: have you had enough yet? If so, help yourself get some real representation in Annapolis!
