Delaney obviously is bad news,
Not hearing hear enough from Ficker’s on his plans and policies
I get the mailers and see the social media ads

Delaney is basically in a form of insider trading, she voted four times against the bill that would disallow Congress people and their immediate families from investing in the stock market while serving the public! (serving the public is what most politicians have forgotten or never cared about)

Yes, Ficker wants to help make life more affordable for Maryland, a tough task , with a deep blue legislature, and the governor who have never seen a new or increased tax or fee they didn’t love.

But how will Ficker try to make life more affordable for Marylanders



It's been a good couple of years for April McClain Delaney: 486 stock trades worth up to $15.46 million. For 6th District families, it's been higher prices on just about everything. I'm running to make life here affordable again.

Received our car registration renewal, and the fees have doubled

Can’t blame somebody for registering a car in Virginia and as the gentleman said, the price  registering your car is so high, the MVA offers a payment plan
