Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan has announced he is running for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Ben Cardin. The Republican is entering a crowded field of contenders for the position, currently led by Democrat Congressman David Trone. Hogan has been active in trying to find a Republican presidential candidate to stand up to Donald Trump, working with the organization No Labels. He recently threw his support behind Republican Nikki Haley for President. "I am running for the United States Senate – not to serve one party – but to stand up to both parties, fight for Maryland, and fix our nation's broken politics. It’s what I did as Maryland’s governor, and it’s exactly how I'll serve Maryland in the Senate. My fellow Marylanders, you know me. For eight years we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation need not divide our state," Hogan said.
