Maryland doesn’t hold its 2024 primary election until May 14, 2024, but three candidates have already announced they’re running for a U.S. Senate seat that’s opening up, while a fourth continues to mull things over.
Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks is the newest entrant to the race, announcing her candidacy in a video released Tuesday before holding her first campaign rally Wednesday in New Carrollton. It was also the first rally any of the candidates have held.
Alsobrooks won’t have the most well-funded campaign, and she might not be the most recognized name either, if U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin jumps in the race. The Montgomery County Democrat has made a name for himself in high profile Capitol Hill hearings and has been talking with other Democrats around the state about entering the race.
“The state of Maryland is a little larger than Prince George’s, so that’s the first challenge,” said Alsobrooks, acknowledging she has to introduce herself beyond her home base in Prince George’s County after her rally on Wednesday.
