This is my favorite BS in politics. The partisan group pushing Question 3 on Marylanders cannot themselves explain why we should vote for this - but they can mansplain to @MileahKromer, an actual political scientist and pollster, how her poll didn’t bolster their outcome.

Yesterday the @dancox4maryland supporters were ripping the UMBC poll, questioning methodology etc. and @iamwesmoore fans praising it. But fast forward 24 hours and now the results on #Question3 have the reverse happening! This is a great poll and greater public service!
Here is Part 2 of the UMBC Poll: politics.umbc.edu/wp-content… Topics: ☑️Views on open and closed primary elections ☑️Perceived problems facing American democracy ☑️Attitudes toward Question 3

Maryland spent a year fighting over Question 3. UMBC translated it into plain English. Voters: “Yeah…still it's a no.” Maybe the legalese wasn’t the only problem. My latest 👇 theangeletteaviles.substack.…

Moore said a lot w/out really saying much. Cox did much better than I expected. He made valid points about why MDers are frustrated & where Moore has fallen short. But I’m still missing the biggest piece: I hear what’s wrong, but how will you fix it besides not raising taxes? #maryland #election #wesmoore #dancox #debate

Wow, I’m actually impressed how much Trump knows about the Ravens (games, injuries, etc) while going off script during his speech in Baltimore to acknowledge 4 players in attendance, just a couple minutes ago.

🚨 Well, it’s not just The Baltimore Sun writing about what happened during the gubernatorial debate. The Baltimore Banner is on it, too. Gov. Wes Moore my advice is….“If you can’t commit, you must quit.” Oh & yes, those are my grown babies on my phone! #maryland #election

Marylanders are so frustrated. So why is Wes Moore at 51% while Dan Cox sits at 24% in the latest @UMBC poll? At some point, the question stops being “What’s wrong with Moore?” & becomes “Why aren’t voters buying the alternative?” My latest ⬇️ open.substack.com/pub/theang… @MileahKromer

Glad to talk with @TomRodgersNews @FOXBaltimore today about this. Candidates don't win debates they lose debates by saying dumb stuff. If there is a Blue Wave/Tsunami democrats have 2 years to show they can govern and keep DSA far away. That is 50/50. foxbaltimore.com/fox45-morni…

What if the biggest mistake politicians make with Hispanic voters is assuming there’s a uniquely “Hispanic” reason for how we vote? Sometimes it’s much simpler.... my latest Substack👇 theangeletteaviles.substack.…

When a ballot question requires ChatGPT to figure out what you’re voting on, that might be your first clue...to just vote No.
I just got my Maryland ballot….. Chat… what does this mean?

If this is the case, then there’s no need to redistrict. Therefore Vote No to Question 3 on the ballot!

As a journalist, these kinds of programs strike me as borderline predatory. It costs $120,000 to complete Columbia's 9-month MA in journalism. For a career where the starting salary is often as low as $40,000. We need to normalize learning on the job.
NEW: The Columbia Journalism School is pausing admissions for its Master of Arts degree amid a “critical evaluation” of the M.A. curriculum, Dean Jelani Cobb announced in a Thursday afternoon email to alumni.

If a different school changed Wes Moore’s life, should MD families have access to education options too? A new federal tax credit scholarship program starts 1/1/27 & doesn't cost taxpayers a ¢. 30 states opted in. MD has remained silent. My latest 👇 theangeletteaviles.substack.…

Conflating govt school vouchers with the Tax Credit Scholarship program funded directly by individual donors! And sadly many people will believe it’s a voucher because they don’t read what the program is about.🤦🏻‍♀️
You mean the one that can (and will) help kids in public schools too? Ok, Randi. LOL.

BREAKING: Another loss for Baltimore City Hall in its fight with the Inspector General. The Appellate Court *denied* the City’s latest emergency request to restrict OIG access, saying the City appears able to determine if the watchdog accesses protected legal materials.
