MD-SEN: Alsobrooks holds wide lead over Hogan in Maryland Senate race: Poll

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 George’s County executive, pulled in 54 percent support among likely Maryland voters, compared to Hogan’s 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. That’s 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.

Hogan was one I worried about. He was a popular governor and supposedly a moderate repub. A seat we'll need.

I was concerned about that race. From what I could tell Hogan was a fairly popular governor.

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

Hogan has been campaigning as an independent, not a republican. And he’s very popular here. I’ve been nervous about this one.
