One Maryland...Minus Prince George's County

The week leading up to Wednesday's inaugural activities was climaxed with the "One Maryland" tour. Governor Martin O'Malley and Lt. Governor Anthony Brown toured the state to heard the concerns of free staters. The tour stopped in Anne Arundel, Calvert, Frederick, Montgomery and Talbot Counties. One county was not included in the tour and officials there are not happy.

Prince George's County supported O'Malley more than any other county, and many residents were not happy that O'Malley didn't pay a pre-inaugural visit. Terry Speigner, chairman of the county's Democrats, told The Washington Post that he received many calls from people upset and the perceived snub.

While Speigner appreciated that the prayer breakfast the day of the inauguration was held in the county, he would have liked to see the county have the same opportunity to voice their concerns to the new executive. Also not happy, State Sen. Nathaniel Exum (D-Dist. 24) who feels that O'Malley forgot the county already.

O'Malley's camp said that the breakfast was planned before the "One Maryland" tour to highlight Prince George's role in the election. One person notably not missing from the bandwagon is County Executive Jack Johnson. Johnson, through a spokesman, feels that O'Malley has been in the county enough times and that the breakfast was an honor.
