“Dan Cox, Maryland’s unsuccessful GOP gubernatorial nominee in last year’s race against Gov. Wes Moore (D), filed to run for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives on Monday,” the Washington Examiner reports.
“Cox was a member of the Maryland state House of Delegates when he ran for governor as an unabashed supporter of former President Donald Trump. He won a contentious Republican primary fight against then-GOP Gov. Larry Hogan’s centrist pick for the nomination, only to get crushed in the general election by a whopping 60%-37% margin.”
“Now, Cox has filed to run for Maryland’s 6th Congressional District in next year’s race. The area is currently represented by Rep. David Trone (D-MD), who is forgoing reelection to run for the open Senate seat being vacated by retiring Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD).”
