Hogan campaign releases two ads, "Heather," and "Kandie"

ANNAPOLIS, MD — The Hogan campaign released two ads today featuring supporters discussing why they are voting for Larry Hogan for governor. Their messages focus on Anthony Brown's economic record, which has made it more difficult for families to live in Maryland.

"The economic policies of the current administration hurt working and middle-class families the most," said Larry Hogan. "These ads outline what average Marylanders across the state feel and what they tell me every day on the campaign trail. Whether I'm in Allegany, Montgomery, or Worcester, Marylanders tell me they are struggling to make ends meet and feel as though this administration has completely ignored their problems and are actually making their problems worse."

The first ad, "Heather," features Heather Crowder of Annapolis. She tells the camera, "It's becoming harder and harder to raise a family here. I don't think it's believable when Anthony Brown says he's not going to raise taxes again. It's what he knows, it's what they do; when they need money, they raise taxes."

The second ad, "Kandie," features K Kandie Leach of Mt Washington. She tells the camera, "What makes things crazy is when you keep voting in the same party and there is no change, actually they call that insanity. I have never voted for anyone in the Republican Party in the past. I am voting for Larry Hogan."

The full ads can be watched here​ and here​. Transcripts are included below.

Heather: "I'm Heather Crowder and I'm supporting Larry Hogan for Governor.

It's becoming harder and harder to raise a family here. I don't think it's believable when Anthony Brown says he's not going to raise taxes again. It's what he knows, it's what they do; when they need money, they raise taxes. They've done it like 40 times.

I do not think Anthony Brown deserves a promotion. I'm supporting Hogan, and it's not about Republican or Democrat because it has nothing to do with party, and everything to do with making our state a better place."

Kandie: "I am K Kandie Leach and I am voting for Larry Hogan. In most cases, the state of Maryland has remained stagnant; we have not moved forward, unemployment rates are high, we can't afford to live here.

They are implementing just ridiculous taxes, a tax on rain; families are struggling right now and I don't feel that Brown can make the change.

What makes things crazy is when you keep voting in the same party and there is no change, actually they call it insanity. I have never voted for anyone in the Republican Party in the past. I am voting for Larry Hogan."

Brown said he won't raise taxes. He never said he wouldn't create new taxes or raise the fees which are actually a tax is disguise.

With all the new income from the gambling casinos, flush tax, sales tax increase to 6%. 18 cent a gallon increase on gas tax, toll fee increases ($6.00 bay bridge fee/ tax), rain tax and so on the state should have a huge surplus, obviously there is a SPENDING PROBLEM in Annapolis.
