    US Senate candidate Larry Hogan to skip Donald Trump-led Republican National Convention

    Republican U. S. Senate candidate Larry Hogan, the original two- word government, did n’t go next season’s Republican National Convention that will be led by former President Donald Trump, a Hogan social attack.

    In an internet response to questions from The Baltimore Sun, campaign spokesperson Blake Kernen stated,” I can clearly tell you Governor Hogan will not be in attendance.”

    Hogan, who has urged the group to walk away from Trump, did not attend GOP standards in 2016 and 2020. Trump was the group’s standard bearer at those standards, and he is now presumed to be the nomination again for the upcoming Milwaukee events scheduled for July 15 through July 18.

    For decades, Republican and Democratic nominating standards showcased not just their presidential candidates, but even candidates for U. S. Senate, House and other agencies.

    Some made introduction appearances or speaking roles on the platform. Others were there to fundraise, since loads of big donors are there as VIPs”, said Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia.

    Those appearances by congressional candidates, governors and others still occur. Republicans running in blue states like Maryland may get more political mileage by not attending since Trump’s rise as a divisive figure in 2016.

    Hogan must defeat Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks, the Democratic nominee for the seat of retiring&nbsp, Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin because Democrats have a more than 2- 1 voter registration advantage in the state. While Trump maintains support in pockets of the state, such as the Eastern Shore and Western Maryland, he got just 32 % of Maryland’s vote in losing to Democratic President Joe Biden in 2020, who won all of the state’s 10 electoral votes.

    Hogan’s brand has long been distinct from the Republican Party. &nbsp, He actively opposes Trump&nbsp, and portrays himself as a solutions- oriented anti- politician.

    ” It makes absolutely no sense for Hogan to go to Milwaukee”, Sabato said. The Trump base is known to call on those who offended their leader, and there would likely be unfortunate events or catcalls.

    He and others were not made available for interviews about the convention by the Hogan campaign.

    The Hogan- Trump division widened last week&nbsp, when a New York jury&nbsp, found Trump guilty of falsifying business records to influence the 2016 election&nbsp, through hush money payments&nbsp, to a porn actor who said the two had sex. Ahead of the verdict, Hogan said on social media:” Regardless of the results, I urge all Americans to respect the verdict and the legal process”.

    Trump and many of his supporters have criticized the trial in New York as “rigged.”

    Republican National Committee co- Chair Lara Trump&nbsp, defended her father- in- law on CNN&nbsp, on Sunday and declined to say whether the party will back Hogan’s campaign.

    ” I’ll get back to you on all the specifics monetarily, but what I can tell you as the RNC co- chair, I think he] Hogan ] should have never said something like that”, Lara Trump said. He “does not deserve the respect of anyone in the Republican party at this time.”

    On Monday, the RNC and the Trump campaign did not respond to messages asking for more information.

    If Hogan did attend the convention, he would need to answer for his post about Trump’s trial, Trump supporter Kim Klacik said Monday in an interview. She is a Republican candidate for the 2nd Congressional District held by retiring Democratic Rep. C. A. Dutch Ruppersberger.

    ” Larry Hogan should definitely attend. After his comment regarding the Trump verdict, I believe many Republicans have a few questions for him. Hopefully, he can answer them in person”, Klacik said.

    She is facing&nbsp, Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski Jr., a Democrat, in the district, which covers parts of Baltimore and Carroll counties, and a small part of Baltimore City.

    Klacik addressed the Republican convention in the Baltimore-based 7th Congressional District in 2020 after being defeated by Democratic Rep. Kweisi Mfume. She claimed that it’s not certain if she will attend this year’s convention.

    During the May 14 primary, voters elected thousands of delegates, including elected officials and county GOP committee members, while others have been appointed by the state party.

    At least four Republican U.S. senators, including Mitt Romney from Utah, who has been a Trump critic, told The Hill newspaper last month that they did not intend to attend the convention. The others were Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski, Indiana’s Todd Young and North Carolina’s Thom Tillis.
