A county executive running for Senate in Maryland secured the endorsement of another House Democrat as the race sharply divides the party over who will succeed retiring Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD).

Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) endorsed Angela Alsobrooks in the Senate race to replace Cardin, who announced in May of last year that he would not seek reelection in 2024. Alsobrooks, who is the executive for Prince George’s County, and Rep. David Trone (D-MD), who has been in office since 2019, are the leading Democratic candidates in the race.
