NEWS AND COMMENTARY ON THE 2022 ELECTION

SILVER SPRING, MD – Maryland Democrat Delegate Brian Crosby held a big fundraiser at the end of September in the county that reflects his voting record the very best, and it sure as hell wasn’t in St. Mary’s County.  Instead, a bevy of liberal Democrats rallied the rich of the wealthy elitist county in a brewery in Silver Spring to raise money to pay for TV ads and endless postcards to blanket the district in which Crosby stands a very good chance of losing in the General Election on November 8, 2022.

Delegate John Bohanan lost to Republican Deb Rey, which derailed his plans to become Speaker of the House of Maryland upon Mike Busch vacating the post of Speaker.  It was a double whammy for Mary Bohanan in 2014 when her husband was kicked to the curb by the voters in the county in which he grew up and lived all his life, whipped by a female conservative Republican and Air Force veteran who works as a defense contractor since she retired from the military.

Mary Bohanan’s brother, Senator Roy Dyson, also had his forty-year career as an elected official brought to a halt in 2014 when he was whipped by Republican Steve Waugh for the Maryland Senate seat shared by St. Mary’s County and the tip of Calvert.

Democrat Roy Dyson was first elected to the Maryland House of Delegates from St. Mary’s/Charles three-member district in 1974 and won five terms representing the First Congressional District of Maryland in 1980 before losing to Republican Wayne Gilchrest in 1990. In 1994, Dyson won the first of five terms in the Maryland Senate.

Ironically, it was the successful work of Bohanan as the senior aide to U. S. Rep. Steny Hoyer from 1992 until 2015 that landed more than 20,000 new jobs at the Naval Air Warfare Center at Pax River NAS that brought Deb Rey to the area. Hoyer moved to St. Mary’s County in time for the redistricting shuffle to add Southern Maryland to the Fifth Congressional District that Hoyer represented.

Crosby, with a background in the Army, is the only military veteran that the liberal Democrats will celebrate as GOP candidate Eric Anderson was lambasted by a St. Mary’s College of Maryland senior professor for his campaign materials, just as Crosby has done, that prominently displayed his service in the military when he was Bohanan’s opponent in the 2010 General Election.

That wasn’t the only change in the delegate race as Bohanan shifted his stance on same-sex marriage as “marriage is only between a man and a woman” to become the deciding vote for same-sex marriage when it passed the Maryland General Assembly, ensuring Bohanan’s liberal credentials to gain Montgomery County support for Speaker. Bohanan said that if one of his sons was able to express love by being with another man, he wouldn’t stand in the way – which was rather cruel as none of his sons is gay but never stand in front of a bus that a politician is driving.
