Maryland Senate race heats up with Cardin retirement announcement.
TL;DR Summary
Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan has ruled out a Senate bid in 2024, depriving the GOP of a strong candidate for the seat being vacated by Senator Ben Cardin. Hogan, a centrist who frequently criticized former President Trump, would have been a formidable candidate, but he cited the Senate's job description as a reason for not pursuing the position. Maryland is a reliably blue state, making it a difficult race for the GOP in a presidential election year. Three possible Democratic candidates lead the pack of contenders to replace Cardin.
