STATEMENT FROM GOVERNOR MARTIN O'MALLEY ON ELECTION RESULT

Baltimore, MD -- Following last night's election result, Governor Martin O'Malley issued the following statement:

"I am humbled by the strong showing of support from people from across Maryland.  Maryland voters tonight sent a clear and decisive message: they want to move forward, not back.  These past four years have not been easy for Maryland families, but together we have made the tough but necessary decisions to cut state spending in the face of a devastating national recession while protecting core priorities like job creation, public education funding, a four-year college tuition freeze, and public safety.  Marylanders know it is not by accident, but by choice that Maryland is weathering the storm better than our neighbors and stands poised to emerge stronger than before.  Tonight Maryland took a step forward.
"This campaign belongs to the thousands of Marylanders who made phone calls, knocked on doors, and talked to their neighbors about moving our great state forward."

"And once we get done with redistricting, Maryland will once again be as blue as it ever was."

I just finished looking at a county-by-county breakdown of the election results for governor. OweMalley won Baltimore County, Charles County, Howard County, Montgomery County, and Prince George's County. OweMalley and Ehrlich tied in Baltimore City. A plurality of the counties voted for Ehrlich. That means that most counties did NOT want OweMalley. I really feel sorry for you all in Maryland. Honestly, I do. We came to our senses here in Virginia. I'm just sorry I had to move away from home and can't be there to help out you all by being a vote for Ehrlich.
