0:00

In Maryland, the upcoming primary elections on May 14th are shaping up to be highly contested, with key races in both the Senate and House garnering attention. Former Republican Governor Larry Hogan’s run for an open Senate seat has injected new energy into the race, offering Republicans a chance to potentially flip the traditionally Democratic seat. Meanwhile, in the House races, several incumbents and new challengers are vying for their party’s nomination.

The race to succeed Senator Ben Cardin has become increasingly competitive, with Hogan leading the GOP primary and Democrats facing a tough choice between Rep. David Trone and Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks. The House races are also heating up, with multiple candidates running to replace retiring Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger and Rep. John Sarbanes.

As voters head to the polls on Tuesday, the primary races in Maryland will be closely watched, with potential historic outcomes and shifts in power at stake. The outcome of these races could have a significant impact on the political landscape in Maryland and beyond.
