Larry Hogan (Republican Party) is running for election to the U.S. Senate to represent Maryland. He is on the ballot in the general election on November 5, 2024. He advanced from the Republican primary on May 14, 2024.

Hogan (Republican Party) was the Governor of Maryland. He assumed office on January 21, 2015. He left office on January 18, 2023.

Upon his re-election in 2018, he became the second Republican to be elected to two terms as governor in state history.[1] He ran on a joint ticket with the lieutenant gubernatorial nominee, Boyd Rutherford (R).

Hogan served in Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich's (R) cabinet from 2003 to 2007. He founded The Hogan Companies, specializing in real estate brokerage.[2]

Biography

Hogan was born in Washington, D.C., and attended Catholic high schools in Maryland and Florida. He received his bachelor's degree in government and political science from Florida State University in 1978.[3]

Hogan founded the real estate brokerage firm The Hogan Companies. From 2003 to 2007, he served in former Gov. Robert Ehrlich's (R) cabinet as secretary of appointments.[2] In 2011, Hogan founded a nonprofit political group that, according to Hogan's official biography, was "dedicated to bringing fiscal responsibility and common sense to state government."[4] Hogan chaired the National Governors Association from 2019 to 2020.[2][3]

Political career

Governor of Maryland (2015-2023)

Hogan was elected governor of Maryland in 2014 and re-elected in 2018.

2024 battleground election

See also: United States Senate election in Maryland, 2024

Ballotpedia identified the November 5, general election as a battleground race. The summary below is from our coverage of this election, found here.

Angela Alsobrooks (D), Larry Hogan (R), and three other candidates are running in Maryland's U.S. Senate election on Nov. 5, 2024. Incumbent Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), who was first elected in 2006, is not running for re-election.

On the state of the race, Maryland Matters' Josh Kurtz said, "For Alsobrooks, it's about trying to tie Hogan, a popular center-right Republican who has thrived in a Democratic state, to the most extreme elements of the national GOP, especially on issues like abortion rights—as control of the U.S. Senate hangs in the balance. For Hogan, it's about persuading a critical number of Democrats and nonaffiliated voters that he's an independent operator, and reminding them that his governing style won broad approval during his eight years in Annapolis."[5]

Alsobrooks is Prince George's County executive. She was first elected in 2018 and re-elected in 2022 after running unopposed in both general elections.[6][7] Alsobrooks was also Prince George's County State's Attorney from 2011 to 2018 after running unopposed in the 2010 and 2014 general elections.[8][9] Before she ran for public office, Alsobrooks was an assistant state's attorney in Prince George's County, where she handled domestic violence cases.[10]

Alsobrooks said her priorities would include creating economic opportunities, building transportation and technology infrastructure, and protecting abortion access.[10] Alsobrooks said her life experiences would inform her work in the Senate: "I understand the struggles of hard-working families because I grew up in one. How we solve a lot of these issues is borne directly from my personal experience of watching people work hard to make things happen for their families."[11]

Hogan was the Governor of Maryland from 2015 to 2023. He was first elected in 2014, defeating Anthony Brown (D), 51% to 47.2%. Hogan won re-election in 2018, defeating Ben Jealous (D) 55.4% to 43.5%. From 2003 to 2007, Hogan served as secretary of appointments in former Maryland Gov. Robert Ehrlich's (R) cabinet.[12] Hogan also founded the real estate brokerage firm The Hogan Companies.[12]

Hogan said his priorities would include improving public safety and border security, creating economic opportunities, and improving education and job training.[13] Hogan said he would bring "strong, independent leadership" to the Senate: "In the Senate, Republicans can't count on my vote. But then again, neither can Democrats. If they want my vote, they will have to do what is right for Maryland, not one political party."[14][15]

Vice-President Kamala Harris (D) endorsed Alsobrooks.[16] Former President Donald Trump (R) endorsed Hogan.[17] On Trump's endorsement, Hogan said, "I didn't seek it, I didn't want to have it and I have no interest in it."[17]

Minor party and independent candidates include Nancy Wallace (G), Mike Scott (L), and Emmanuel Osuchukwu (I).

Polls

Polls are conducted with a variety of methodologies and have margins of error or credibility intervals.[18] The Pew Research Center wrote, "A margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points at the 95% confidence level means that if we fielded the same survey 100 times, we would expect the result to be within 3 percentage points of the true population value 95 of those times."[19] For tips on reading polls from FiveThirtyEight, click here.

Race ratings

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

  • Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
  • Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
  • Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[34]
  • Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[35][36][37]

Campaign website

Hogan’s campaign website stated the following:

Dear Marylanders,

Fifty years ago, my father, Maryland Congressman Larry Hogan Sr. made a tough decision. He became the first Republican to come out for the impeachment of President Nixon. He put aside party politics and his own personal considerations and stepped up to do the right thing for Maryland and the nation.

Today, Washington is completely broken because that kind of leadership and willingness to put country over party, has become far too rare.

Marylanders – you know me.

For eight years, we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation need not divide our state. We overcame unprecedented challenges: cut taxes eight years in a row – balanced the budget – and created a record surplus.

And we did it all by finding common ground for the common good.

Because Maryland is the state of middle temperament.

We believe in common decency and common sense. Like most of you, I’m completely fed up with politics-as-usual and politicians in Washington who are more interested in arguing than getting anything done for the people.

Enough is enough.

We can do so much better, but not if we keep electing the same kind of typical partisan politicians.

Over eight years – just down the road from Washington – we have already shown a better path forward.

One party alone can’t fix it.

Let’s face it, we desperately need leadership willing to stand up to both parties. Leadership that appreciates that no one of us has all the answers or all the power.

This is not just about the differences between the right and the left. This is about the difference between right and wrong.

And this isn’t just the typical fight between Democrats and Republicans.

It’s more important than that. This is a fight for Maryland and America’s future, and that is a fight worth fighting.

And that’s why I have made the decision to run for the United States Senate – not to serve one party – but to fix our nation’s broken politics and fight for Maryland.

It’s what I did as your governor, and it’s exactly how I’ll serve you in the United States Senate.

Let’s get back to work.[43]

—Larry Hogan’s campaign website (2024)[44]

2014

Hogan's campaign website listed the following themes for the 2014 race:

As Governor, Larry Hogan will:

Cut over $1,75 billion in waste, fraud, and abuse from state government

Our recent analysis of state and federal audits shows specific examples of waste, fraud, and abuse in state government that the current administration has refused to act on. These examples include the use of government credit cards on luxury items, personal use of state-owned vehicles, lack of fraud control in state agencies, widespread mismanagement, and more. The Hogan-Rutherford administration will implement the recommendations of past audits, conduct additional audits of every state agency, and immediately get to work eliminating duplication, fraud, and waste to make sure that every cent of taxpayer money is spent efficiently.

Roll back taxes without cutting government priorities

The $1.75 billion in waste and abuse that we have identified is unfortunately just the top of the iceberg. It is unconscionable that despite this excess money thrown around in state agencies, Maryland continues to operate on a $400 million structural deficit. By cutting the waste and abuse from state government, Larry Hogan will be able to save the taxpayers billions of dollars without having to cut priority programs and agencies, which will enable him to cut and eliminate the regressive taxes that have crushed middle class families and small businesses.

Change Maryland's reputation as a state that is unfriendly to job creators

Maryland's unemployment rate is about 75% higher today than it was when the recession began. In fact, the nonpartisan Tax Foundation ranked Maryland #41 in the nation for business climate. The main reason for this unfortunate reality is that it costs too much for job creators to stay in or come to Maryland. Larry Hogan will reduce the burden on job creators, open Maryland for business, and make our state more competitive with others in our region. In addition, the Hogan-Rutherford administration will overhaul the Department of Business and Economic Development to focus on aggressively attracting and retaining job creators in order to bring more and better-paying jobs to Maryland.[43]

Hogan announced on December 20, 2021, that he tested positive for COVID-19. He said he was vaccinated at the time he contracted the virus.[49]

Response to Syria policy (2015)

Main article: U.S. governors and their responses to Syrian refugees

Following the Paris terrorist attacks on November 13, 2015, in which members of the Islamic State (ISIS) killed at least 129 people and wounded more than 350, reports surfaced showing that one of the terrorists responsible for the attacks in Paris may have come to France posing as a Syrian refugee.[50] Many governors issued statements of support or opposition to President Obama’s plan to allow 10,000 new Syrian refugees into the United States. Hogan had conditional opposition to the resettlement of Syrian refugees in the state of Maryland. He said:

As governor of Maryland, the safety and security of Marylanders remains my first priority. Following the terrorist attacks on Paris just four days ago, and after careful consideration, I am now requesting that federal authorities cease any additional settlements of refugees from Syria in Maryland until the U.S. government can provide appropriate assurances that refugees from Syria pose no threat to public safety.[43]
—Gov. Larry Hogan[51]

Reaction to Freddie Gray death (2015)

On April 19, 2015, Freddie Gray, an African-American resident of Baltimore, Maryland, died from a severe spinal injury. He sustained the injury during the course of an arrest that took place on April 12, 2015, in a west Baltimore neighborhood.

In the aftermath of Gray's death, rioting and protests began in Baltimore. On April 27, 2015, Gov. Hogan declared a state of emergency and deployed the National Guard. At the same time, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake established a citywide curfew from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.[52]

On April 28, Hogan pledged to send at least 1,000 additional National Guard troops. In response to criticisms of the state's delayed response, Hogan said that an emergency order was ready on April 25 but that the governor's office had waited for a response from Rawlings-Blake before mobilizing state resources.[53]
