"Until Larry Hogan disavows Grasso's comments and explains why he refused to stand up to Trump's Muslim ban, then it really doesn't matter how his quote made it on this piece,” said Kevin Harris, a senior adviser to Democrat Ben Jealous, who is running against Hogan for governor. “The real issue here is that Larry Hogan never wants to take accountability for his actual record. We've seen this same pattern before, when Hogan takes contributions from the NRA then tries to distance himself from the organization, or when he tells voters he invested record funding in education despite the fact he attempted to cut education spending and has allowed our schools to go underfunded."
