Republican Dan Cox has a hill to climb without the support of two-term Maryland Republican Governor Larry Hogan.
"The choice in this election is so clear that Governor Larry Hogan—the leader of Dan Cox's own party—has said he wouldn't even give Dan Cox a tour of the Governor's Office," Elliott said."Given the fact that Dan Cox literally tried to undermine our democracy on January 6, it makes sense why Marylanders—including the governor—are rejecting his divisive politics, dangerous rhetoric and anti-American actions.
"Larry Hogan was a candidate that was able to win Democratic votes and he had a consistent approval rating that has been above 50 percent Democratic approval," Kromer said."What we see with Dan Cox is a close alignment with former PresidentKromer said that while the peak of Trump's approval rating statewide never surpassed the low 30s, it was"particularly bad among Democrats," who have expressed satisfaction with Hogan.
Cox's favorability ratings are 20 percent lower than Moore's, according to the poll. About 35 percent of those surveyed also have a perception that Cox is a"far or extreme right" candidate, which is higher than those who view him as"conservative" or"moderate." "Hogan is a different type of Republican than Donald Trump is," Kromer said."For Maryland, about 18 percent of voters are independents and Hogan won over 60 percent of that group. Cox is having a tough time reaching Democrats and independents....The math is that you just can't have robust-based turnout. You need crossover votes."
