Voters out in the "fly over" states who want to buy trucks and tractors that they depend on to do their jobs should be hounding their Congressional Representatives to support opening the port of Baltimore.
Anyone who buys anything from Europe, should also realize that closing the largest port on the east coast of the nation is not going to help their family budget.
There are 17 terminals at Baltimore and the location is close to about 30% of the population for truck delivery.
Portland, Maine has 11 terminals. Which I think is second.
As for land area, or TEUs other ports would top those lists. If you are trying to ship to Ohio, then New York or Savannah, let alone Portland, aren't as attractive.
