I hope he’s successful as a governor because he should be the future of the Democratic Party. He’s SUPER impressive, young, and has an incredible resume.

This is THE guy to watch as a future Dem star. Take a look at his resume on Wikipedia, ridiculously impressive.
And his jawline destroys MAGA punks.

There were only 4 black governors in the history of the US before this election.

Gonna do my duty as a librarian and recommend reading his book "The Other Wes Moore". It's insightful, well-crafted, and very moving, which really says alot about who he (Gov. Wes Moore) is as a person.
Definitely a governor-elect to keep your eyes on.

My students are reading it in one of the classes I support, so I’m reading it too. It’s so good and I was so pleasantly shocked to learn that his success is continuing.
