I did not even have to vote yesterday.
I live in Maryland, which is a blue state. It has mostly always been a blue state, minus a few Republican governors who knew they still had to cater to the left if they want more than one term.
Maryland is almost as blue as blue can be and we hardly ever run into problems. It is a great state.
I think we lost one house seat to a Republican but that is because the Democrat incumbent, who was a freshman, had no chance to begin with. Everybody knew that was happening from the polling and nothing was going to stop it.
All other incumbents, including the Democrat governor, were retained. The Governor isn't even that popular, but the guy running against him is the Republican Governor that lost his second term to him last time around. That Republican deregulated our gas and electric, leading to a 72% hike and did other things that voters have not forgotten.
