Republican former Gov. Larry Hogan and Democratic county executive Angela Alsobrooks emerged victorious Tuesday in Maryland’s primary races for the state’s open US Senate seat.
Hogan, who served two terms as Maryland’s governor from 2015 to 2023, easily topped the crowded GOP field with more than 60% of the vote despite his late entry into the race.
Alsobrooks, the executive of Prince George’s County, fended off a fierce campaign mounted by deep-pocketed Rep. David Trone (D-Md.), the founder of alcohol retailer Total Wine, who poured more than $50 million of his own money into the race.
Alsobrooks received 53.4% of the vote to Trone’s 42.6% despite the congressman’s spending blitz.
The race for the Senate seat being vacated by retiring Sen.
