🚨 FIVE MAJOR CONTROVERSIES DEFINING WES MOORE’S RECORD IN MARYLAND: TAXES, DEFICITS, JOBS, ELECTRICITY AND SCHOOLS
Gov. Wes Moore’s administration faces mounting scrutiny over Maryland’s finances and economic performance.
▪️ 1. HIGHER TAXES: Moore signed legislation imposing a 3% tax on certain IT services, new income-tax brackets up to 6.5%, and higher vehicle excise taxes.
▪️ 2. STRUCTURAL DEFICITS: Legislative analysts project a $2.6 billion shortfall in FY2028, despite spending cuts and revenue increases.
▪️ 3. JOB LOSSES: Maryland’s revised payroll estimates showed 20,100 jobs lost across August and September 2026, raising concerns about economic momentum.
▪️ 4. ELECTRICITY COSTS: Maryland households face higher bills as regional capacity-market prices surge. The state’s consumer advocate identifies generation shortages and market rules among the causes.
▪️ 5. EDUCATION FUNDING: Moore proposed slowing portions of the Blueprint school reforms, drawing opposition from educators concerned about disadvantaged students. Lawmakers rejected several proposed reductions.
Moore argues his administration has made difficult budget decisions while investing in economic growth.
The accountability question: After nearly four years, are Marylanders seeing affordable government, stronger job growth and better public services?

@MDBayNews Was in Havre de Grace this morning to vote. They clearly have posted on the wall the number of voters per hour since voting started. Several hours on Thursday and Friday there were close to 900 people.
People are finally waking up🤞🏼
BREAKING:
Barack Hussein Obama just endorsed DSA Senate candidate Angie Nixon, a self admitted communist who voted against legislation in the Florida legislature to honor Charlie Kirk when he was assassinated.
Obama is the leader of the DSA movement. I hope everyone now realizes that.
🚨 UNLICENSED, INTOXICATED TEEN KILLS 88-YEAR-OLD WOMAN IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY — WILL SERVE JUST 2 YEARS, 5 MONTHS
A Montgomery County judge sentenced Liam Coskun, 19, following a deadly Gaithersburg crash that killed Myrtle Gottlieb, 88, and injured another driver.
▪️ 14-YEAR SENTENCE: The judge suspended all but 18 months. Coskun waived credit for 11 months already served, bringing his active time to 2 years, 5 months.
▪️ NO LICENSE: Coskun was driving a Jeep without a valid driver’s license.
▪️ RAN RED LIGHT: Investigators determined the May 31, 2025 crash was avoidable.
▪️ OVER LEGAL LIMIT: His breath alcohol concentration measured 0.09, above Maryland’s adult DUI threshold.
▪️ GUILTY PLEA: Coskun admitted to grossly negligent manslaughter and unauthorized use of a vehicle. He also faces five years of probation, including 18 months of home detention.
A woman lost her life in an avoidable crash involving an unlicensed, intoxicated driver. Does this sentence adequately reflect the consequences?

Voted in Harford County Maryland this morning. Looking at the daily sheets of voter turnout, it's looking good. #VoteRed people have had enough of our governor screwing us over with fees and taxes
This is the saddest thing ever to watch. Wes Moore is looking for someone to play with because his race isn’t getting any national attention so he has to fabricate enemies.
Wes Moore keeps warning Marylanders about MAGA money influencing Question 3. Show the receipts, because the national GOP hasn’t poured anything into this state.
Meanwhile, campaign filings show $500,000 from George Soros-funded Democracy PAC and another $500,000 from an AFSCME fund going to Fight Back MD.
That’s $1 MILLION in reported transfers backing Question 3. Then there’s the $15 million Wes Moore has raised.
If outside political money is the problem, Governor, why aren’t you talking about the money supporting your side?
Vote NO on Question 3. If for no reason other than he is trying to turn this into another bronze star moment for himself.
🚨 TRUMP JUST EXPOSED ROY COOPER’S DEADLY LIE!
The Radical Left former NC Governor released 83 murderers, 51 of them serving LIFE sentences, because he didn’t want them to catch COVID in prison.
Those animals then went out and committed 25 more murders.
One of them: DeCarlos Brown Jr. He viciously slashed Iryna Zarutska from behind on a train while she sat there innocently. Caught on camera. Brutal!
This is WORSE than Willie Horton. Cooper has disgraced North Carolina and is completely disqualified.
President Trump just gave his COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT to Michael Whatley for U.S. Senate.
NORTH CAROLINA — VOTE WHATLEY.
Dear fellow Americans,
You are paying taxes so that millions of illegal immigrants can enjoy free food, phones, medical and shelter, allowing them to have multiple children for “free”.
You are literally paying for your own ethnic replacement.
You are not angry enough!
Vote RED!
