Democrat Angela Alsobrooks boasts a wide 14-point lead over Republican former Gov. Larry Hogan in a new poll of the Maryland Senate race, with less than two weeks until Election Day.
Alsobrooks, the Prince Georges County executive, pulled in 54 percent support among likely Maryland voters, compared to Hogans 40 percent, according to a survey from Emerson College Polling/DC News Now/The Hill. Another 6 percent were undecided.
The new results show a 5-point uptick in support for Alsobrooks since September, while support for Hogan dropped 2 points.
Alsobrooks has a commanding 27-point advantage among Maryland female voters, Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball noted. Thats an increase from an 18-point lead among the same demographic last month.
Hogan, on the other hand, has just a 1-point edge among male voters in the state, Kimball said.

(60,396 posts)Hogan was one I worried about. He was a popular governor and supposedly a moderate repub. A seat we'll need.

(35,827 posts)They focus only on Alsobrooks' alleged property tax evasion. Desperation. Nothing on his policies, experience as governor, etc.

(2,809 posts)Hogan has been campaigning as an independent, not a republican. And hes very popular here. Ive been nervous about this one.
