Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan is actively courting Jewish voters in his Senate race against Democratic nominee Angela Alsobrooks, emphasizing his support for Israel amid the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Hogan's strategy is seen as an attempt to attract a traditionally Democratic constituency, while Alsobrooks must navigate a diverse Democratic coalition that includes both pro-Israel and progressive voters. Recent polling indicates that Alsobrooks is gaining momentum, leading Hogan 49% to 42% according to an Emerson College poll, which shows her particularly strong among younger and Black voters. Despite Hogan's efforts, he is reportedly drawing support from a fraction of Democrats, with 21% indicating they would vote for him. Additionally, a group of House Republicans is pushing for stricter immigration policies in the wake of public support for local law enforcement coordination with ICE. In other news, families affected by the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse have filed a lawsuit against the shipping company responsible for the tragedy, which resulted in the deaths of six workers.
