Angela Alsobrooks Defeats Hogan, Becomes Maryland's First Black U.S. Senator
Nov 6, 2024, 02:38 AM
Democrat Angela Alsobrooks has won the United States Senate race in Maryland, defeating Republican former Governor Larry Hogan. Alsobrooks, currently the Prince George's County Executive, makes history as the first Black person to represent Maryland in the U.S. Senate and the state's first Black female senator. Her victory, projected by the Associated Press and other major news outlets, helps secure Democratic control of the Senate. Hogan, a two-term governor known for his popularity in the predominantly Democratic state, sought to become Maryland's first Republican senator in a generation. Alsobrooks' win marks her as the third Black woman elected to a full term in the U.S. Senate, contributing to the growing diversity of the legislative body. She succeeds retiring Senator Ben Cardin, keeping the seat in Democratic hands.
