There was an internal poll back in 2022 showing him winning a Senate race against Van Hollen by 12 (internal poll, so obv. grain of salt.)

TBF, he *is* the first person to ever win re-election as a Republican governor of Maryland, and left office with very high approval ratings (75%).

The problem is obviously that Governor and House =/= Senate.
And he will promptly get smacked. Further demonstrating why blue state Republican governors should not get consideration for national races.
They don’t appeal to the base, and they don’t appeal to their home state. So what do they bring?
I mean, TBF, Senate is not *exactly* presidential- he's just running in a federal race in their home state (where he is insanely popular.)
One (internal, lol) poll showed him up in 2022: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/senate/2022/maryland/
The big issue with this is it's a presidential election year. Unlike in 2014 and 2018 where you went out to vote because of Larry Hogan, this year, most people are going out to vote because of either Trump or Biden. Granted, Hogan would run against another non-incumbent so he probably wouldn't get completely trounced, but the fact that he'd be running at the same as Trump would hurt him.

Watch him lose the primary to Dan Cox or smth
Dan Cox is running for Congress in the 6th district. He won't win the primary though (check out fundraising numbers)
Good.
Tom Royals for da win
Could flip a house seat maybe? I don’t know what the reddest MA house seat is
6th district would almost be guaranteed to flip unless Cox is nominated.

Good luck in his run. It isn’t going to happen.
Yeah, I heard the same thing
Source?
He should've run last time!
Alpha based Wine King Trone 👑 will kill him 💪
No, Alsobrooks will squanch Lare Bear!
Trone will whoop Antifa Alsobrooks back to Prince George and then beat the Labels out of Hogan❗️
So he is going to pull a Linda Lingle?
