Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan (R) has a sizable lead over both his potential Democrat rivals in the race to fill the vacant Maryland Senate seat of outgoing Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD), according to a new survey from the Washington Post/University of Maryland.
- If Hogan wins it would be a major shock in the deep blue state. Hogan's early polling advantage is likely due to his strong statewide name recognition from his popular stint as state governor and lack of familiarity with the Democrat candidates.
- We expect the race to tighten significantly as the election draws closer and campaigning begins in earnest following the May 14 Democratic primary.
- However, Hogan's strong performance may impact other races if Senate Democrat funds need to be diverted from other high profile races in Ohio, Montana, and Arizona. If Maryland were to flip Republican, it would likely block any route for Democrats to retain the Senate.
