Democrat Wes Moore is on track to accomplish something never before seen in Maryland: becoming the first African American to be elected governor. And the gravity of the election isn't lost on him.
poll late last month showed Democrats with a commanding lead in the statewide races.Moore's popularity in the race is perhaps only overshadowed by Cox's unpopularity, particularly among the state's Republican establishment.
But the state's incumbent governor, Republican moderate Larry Hogan, remains popular in the state, even among Democrats.While Hogan has not endorsed either candidate in the race, he has referred to Cox as a"nut" and a"QANON whack-job," referring to the candidate's embrace of far-right conspiracy theories.
And Cox, who did not respond to NPR requests for an interview, has accused Moore of being a fraud and overexaggerating how long he has lived in Baltimore.At one campaign event last month at the University of Maryland, a woman spent fifteen minutes, undisturbed by the chaos of reporters and Moore's handlers, with her head bent into his chest sobbing in prayer and well-wishes for the candidate.At another in Randallstown, Md.
