Democratic and Republican Candidates Compete in Key Senate Races

The upcoming Democratic primary for the Second Bristol and Plymouth seat features veteran Senator Mark C. Montigny facing first-time candidate Molly Kivi, with voting set for September 3. In Maryland, former Republican Governor Larry Hogan is tied with Democratic nominee Angela Alsobrooks at 46% in a closely watched Senate race, marking a potential historic upset in a traditionally Democratic state. Hogan's campaign has gained momentum despite Maryland's deep blue lean, bolstered by significant financial backing. Meanwhile, in New Hampshire, three Democratic candidates—Angela Brennan, Rebecca McWilliams, and Tara Reardon—are vying to succeed Becky Whitley, focusing on critical issues such as reproductive rights and housing. Lastly, in Colorado, Democrats Cole Buerger and Republican Marc Catlin are set to compete for a newly drawn district seat, with Buerger emphasizing the need for effective leadership in addressing local challenges. The electoral landscape is shaping up across these states with competitive races and varying candidate profiles.
