GOP Pushing Gov. Hogan to Run for Senate

The GOP is urging Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan to jump into the 2022 Senate race after Republicans scored big in Virginia, reports Politico.

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey are also on the Republican Party’s wish list of lawmakers who can potentially help whittle down the number of Democrats in the upper chamber, according to the news outlet.

The report comes two days after Republicans swept most races in Virginia: Financier Glenn Youngkin defeated Democrat Terry McAuliffe in Virginia’s gubernatorial race; Winsome Sears made history as the state’s first female lieutenant governor when she defeated Democrat Hala Ayala; and Jason Miyares made history as the state’s first Latino attorney general with a victory over Democrat incumbent Mark Herring.

Republicans also won at least 50 seats in the Virginia House, ensuring at least a tie with Democrats who had fought to retain control.
