MD-GOV: O'Malley Wins

Posted By | November 7, 2006




This is the first incumbent governor to lose and the first true toss-up gubernatorial election to be called. Democrat Martin O'Malley has defeated Republican Governor Bob Ehrlich. It was a tough race for him no matter what, but I think Ehrlich should have focused a little more on his record and little less on O'Malley's performance as Baltimore's mayor.
