Ex-Obama adviser David Axelrod expressed shock that former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan is shattering expectations in his senate battle against a Democratic official.
Hogan is a popular Maryland Republican who served as the state’s governor for two terms. After leaving office in 2023, he threw himself into a challenge against Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks to replace retiring Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD).
Axelrod, a top Democratic strategist who served as counselor to former President Barack Obama, took to social media on Wednesday to weigh in on the closely-watched senate race.
“It’s testimony to fmr @GovLarryHogan’s popularity in MD that he’s in a tie race for the U.S. Senate, according to a new Anzalone and Fabrizio poll, while @KamalaHarris is beating Trump by 32 points,” Axelrod admired in a post to X.
