Beware the “Disinformation” Police

There is a bill being considered in Annapolis that would severely constrain our First Amendment rights to question the process or results of elections. In HB 333, “Election Disinformation on Large Social Media Platforms and Influence Related to Voting,” “election disinformation” means incorrect or misleading information about election procedures, election results, or voting rights in the State. The bill requires each large social media platform to make reasonable efforts to prevent, detect, and remove accounts and posts that communicate “election disinformation” in the State. The social media platform must report — within 48 hours — very specific information about the problematic posts to the State Board of Elections. Failure to do so would incur fines ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 per offense.

A person who objects to non-citizens voting could be labeled as opposing voting rights.  A person who questions the vote count could be said to be spreading disinformation about an election result.

Recent elections in Democrat controlled areas have shown that they can overwhelm results with mail-in ballots. It's not unusual for Republicans to win on election day, when those in-person votes are counted, but after all the mail in / drop box ballots are added, the Republicans lose. We won't let that happen again. The new leadership  of the Republican Party is fully behind using mail-in ballots when your Democrat run state pursues it. Watch the video and sign up now for the Primary and General election. And let's Bank the Vote!

...HE WON 49 STATES!

There are actually a few reasons that the primary election in MoCo matters this year. We will talk about just one of those reasons here and then follow-up in future installments.

As you probably know, Maryland sends 8 representatives to Congress. In recent years the only one who is a Republican is Andy Harris from District 1. Previously, we had another Republican representative but severe gerrymandering effectively eliminated Republican Roscoe Bartlett from representing District 6. After the 2020 census and much judicial and legislative wrangling District 6 has been returned to a demographic make-up which as far as major party registration is fairly equal.

An election district analysis at the non-partisan website “FiveThirtyEight” indicates that Maryland’s 6^th District is now what they call “Highly Competitive” as opposed to how it used to be, D+double-digits. Democrat David Trone has purchased this district for the last few terms but he has set his sights on the US Senate so there is now no incumbent running.

Here are a couple of images, from the “FiveThirtyEight” site, which describe the demographic make-up of Maryland’s Congressional Districts:

The Republican Party through its elected board, the Montgomery County Republican Central Committee (MCGOP) is currently recruiting qualified applicants to fill Committee vacancies for Legislative Districts: LD 17, LD 19 and LD 20. Eligible individuals must be registered Republican voters and live in those specific areas.  Since these are large geographic areas if you’re interested you may check to confirm your LD by Clicking Here .

If interested in applying, please submit your letter of interest and political/professional resume to the MCGOP’s Party Secretary Lori Jaffe ([email protected]) NO LATER than 5 PM March 22, 2024.  Interviews will be scheduled at a later date.

FREDERICK, MD – Republican candidate for Maryland’s Sixth Congressional District, Dr. Mariela Roca, has been officially endorsed by former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Newt Gingrich. Speaker Gingrich visited the district last October and hosted a fundraising event in support of Dr. Roca. Today, our campaign is proud and honored to receive this endorsement from Speaker Gingrich, who with his “Contract with America” led the Republican Party to victory in 1994 by capturing the majority in the U.S. House of Representatives for the first time in forty years.
