BREAKING NEWS: Charles Lollar wins Md. Republicans' Poll - September 2013.

  

Charles Lollar won our Md. Republicans' Poll this month with a sweeping 54% (125 votes). Falling short this month, Harford County Executive David Craig received 36% (84 votes), Delegate Ron George garnered just 9% (21 votes), and 1% chose Other. 

Although we did have a significantly lower survey-sample than last month, participants most certainly expressed their reasons as to why they think their candidate could be the next governor of Maryland.

Which gubernatorial candidate do you believe has the BEST chances of winning the general election in 2014?

Lollar: 56% 
Craig; 36%  
George: 8%  

Why?

" Maryland is going to elect an african-american governor in 2014. It has become fashionable to achieve such milestones nationally and thank god we have a great conservative black man to meet the challenge."

" Charles has an ability to relate to the people, he is articulate and well-versed in the issues and shows a real interest in making Maryland a state with economic growth and limited government."

" Only Charles Lollar has the ability to reach out to new constituencies who don't typically vote Republican. His charisma and inclusiveness will win the race."

" Pragmatic and non-doctrinal. Experience as an educator, Mayor, Senator and County Executive. Will attract cross-over needed to win general election. Other candidates will get very little support from traditional democratic voters (and thus have no chance to win) "

" Harford County Executive Craig has the ability to raise alot of money. Lollar and Ron George are great people, but they have absolutely no idea what they're doing, and do not have the resources to beat democratic heavy weights Gansler or Brown. "

" He is the only candidate with experience at running his own business. Ron has served two terms as the leading voice against the excessive tax and spending increases."

Which gubernatorial candidate do you believe would be the strongest advocate for protecting our 2nd Amendment Rights?

___________________________________________________________

Which gubernatorial candidate do you believe is the most Conservative? 

Lollar: 56% 

Craig: 29% 

George: 14%

Why?

" Charles doesn't just talk the talk, he puts his neck out there to walk the walk...he was the only one of the three that was right up front during the beginning of the Tea Party movement...he doesn't listen to "establishment" politics as his guide either. "

" This is kind of a dumb question. The answer is who would I trust more to get things done as governor--that would be Charles Lollar. He's a champion for conservatives in a public way; I've heard him speak. I've never even heard of the other two, but Craig is identified online as an educator, which I regard as a profession populated by those of average intelligence and limited imagination. Ron George seems okay, other than looking pretty smarmy in that picture, but I've never heard of him, and I want an advocate for liberty in the Governor's mansion, not a family values volunteer. "

"Just look at David Craig's record! Don't let his moderate demeanor fool you, he is a tested Conservative. He has more legislative experience than the other candidates combined."

"Ron is more than issue driven candidate. He is a true conservative at his very core - convicted by his clear understanding of conservative principles."

"Not sure on this one. Need more info on candidates."
