Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Maryland, leads her Republican opponent Larry Hogan despite many not knowing who she is.
The Democratic candidate for senate in Maryland is leading her GOP rival despite more than a third of eligible voters not recognizing her name. A poll published by Gonzales Research & Media Services this week found that Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks has pulled ahead of Republican former Governor Larry Hogan by five points — 46% to 41%.
The winner of the November election will succeed Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin, who is retiring this year after serving nearly two decades in the Senate and nearly six decades as a state and then federal lawmaker. With Democrats trying to protect their fragile Senate majority, Hogan's late entry into the race in February gave them an unexpected headache in a state previously considered safe territory.
vocal Republican critic of former President Trump who previously flirted with a 2024 White House run, Hogan has repeatedly said that he will not vote for the former president in November's election. In the spring, he stood out from most other Republicans for publicly calling for the guilty verdicts in Trump's criminal trial to be respected. The Gonzales Research & Media Services poll was conducted from Aug. 24 to Aug.
