Were you like underdog at the highest level?

True.

I was polling at 1% in my first poll.

I'm not voting was polling higher than Wes Moore.

And so I was like the underdog of the underdog when I first started running.

But I was like, but I'm not running to be, you know, to lead the Democratic Party.

I'm not running because I take any party's talking points and just swallow them.

I don't do that.

And that's not my family's background.

That's not my background.

I was like, does it make sense or not?

And so when I ran, I wasn't the Democratic Party's choice, but it turned out that I was a choice of the people of the state of Maryland, which is all that ever mattered to me.

And that's exactly how I've tried to govern now, where it's like, I don't take my talking points from party bosses.

I don't do that.

It's like, does it make sense for my people or not?

No, that didn't happen until the general election.

I never got it.

I wasn't getting big endorsements in the primary.

So the primary, you did it all by yourself?

No, the primary, we had a bunch of the established Democrats were already endorsing other people because they'd worked with them, and they're like, they didn't know me.
