Larry Hogan, with two gubernatorial terms, Faces Tough Senate Race Against Angela Alsobrooks Amid Trump's Unpopularity in Maryland

Larry Hogan, the former Republican governor of Maryland, is facing a challenging Senate race against Democrat Angela Alsobrooks. Hogan's campaign has adapted to appeal to the state's predominantly Democratic electorate, sacrificing some conservative positions in the process. Despite his previous success in winning two gubernatorial terms, the current political landscape is different, especially with Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, which may negatively impact Hogan's appeal among Maryland voters. Alsobrooks has leveraged her connections to Vice President Kamala Harris to gain momentum in the race. Analysts note that while Hogan is personally liked, his party affiliation could hinder his chances as voters consider the broader implications of electing a Republican senator.
