The Republicans had candidates running for U.S. Senator and U.S.
Representative. I never heard or read about either of them, though I did
see yard signs for the GOP U.S. Senate candidate.

Why would the GOP waste money even running a candidate in Maryland?
All of the republicans moved away decades ago leaving a vacuum filled
by democrats from the Massachusetts to New York area. We got tired of
high taxes, crime and oppressive government overreach so we bailed.
You folks take comfort in those things.
