Maxwell Frost Endorses Angela Alsobrooks in Maryland Senate Race

The endorsement adds to the growing divide within the Democratic Party, signaling a competitive primary against David Trone.

  • Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL), the first Gen Z member of Congress, endorsed Angela Alsobrooks, aiming to become the state's first Black female U.S. senator.
  • Alsobrooks and Trone, both Democrats, vie for the seat of retiring Sen. Ben Cardin in a race that has sharply divided the party.
  • Frost's endorsement is part of a broader support for Alsobrooks from various House Democrats, contrasting with Trone's backing by top House Democratic leaders.
  • Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan's entry into the Senate race as a Republican presents a significant challenge for Democrats in a traditionally blue state.
  • The Democratic primary's outcome could have major implications for the general election, with polls showing Hogan leading both Alsobrooks and Trone.
