As governor of Maryland from 2007 to 2015, Martin O’Malley legalized marriage equality, abolished the death penalty, expanded access to college and invested in the state’s public schools. He raised Maryland’s renewable energy production, cut its greenhouse gas emissions and partnered with neighboring states to save the Chesapeake Bay. O’Malley demonstrated results-driven leadership with StateStat and BayStat, a version of the CityStat management system he implemented as Baltimore’s mayor (1999–2007). He ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016, and created the Win Back Your State PAC to support state and local candidates running in 2018.
