BREAKING: SenatorCardin (D-MD) will not seek reelection in 2024, setting up a highly competitive Democratic primary for his Senate seat.
“I am proud of all I have done for Maryland. I have given my heart and soul to our great state, and I thank Marylanders for trusting me as your representative for all these years," Cardin, 79, said in a statement."I have run my last election and will not be on the ballot in 2024, but there is still much work to be done. During the next two years, I will continue to travel around the state, listening to Marylanders and responding to their needs," he added.
While Maryland is a safe blue state, the battle to replace Cardin will not only be fiercely contested but could lead to multiple open House seats as well. An open Senate seat is hard to come by in Maryland: There have been only three over the last 70 years.
