Nov 2

*This is a classic permission structure ad: It allows voters who want to vote for Kamala Harris — or against Donald J. Trump — to feel good about voting for a Republican running for Senate. To that end, it presents Mr. Hogan as favoring abortion rights and with a record of bipartisanship, while suggesting that Alsobrooks would not govern in the same spirit. It also reminds Maryland voters that Mr. Hogan effectively put money in their pockets by lowering taxes and tolls.'
