National Democrats are offering a financial boost to the Maryland Democratic Party in their effort to elect Angela Alsobrooks to the U.S. Senate.
The Democratic National Committee is sending a $250,000 grant to the state party, bringing their total contributions to more than $600,000 for this election cycle.
The state party plans to use the money to hire and train organizers and field staff who will reach out to voters. The effort officially is focused on all Democratic candidates, but the biggest prize this year in Maryland is the open U.S. Senate seat, where Alsobrooks is facing Republican nominee Larry Hogan.
“This investment from the DNC underscores the importance of the work the Maryland Democratic Party is doing to engage young voters in the political process while helping to re-elect the Biden Harris ticket, County Executive Alsobrooks, and Democrats up and down the ballot,” said Maryland Democratic Party Chair Ken Ulman in a statement.
