Following months of speculation regarding rumored presidential ambitions, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) announced he is seeking reelection and firmly asserted he is not running for president of the United States.
“Yes, I’ll be serving a full term. I’m excited about reelection. I’m excited about what I’m going to be able to do for the people of Maryland,” Moore told The Hill on Sep. 7.
The governor touted Baltimore’s historic reductions in violent crime and funding secured to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge as highlights of his current term.
“While Trump’s reckless policies make everything cost more, we are showing Marylanders from across the state and party lines that there’s a better way forward to make our economy stronger and everyday life more affordable,” said Moore in
