Glenn Ivey for the 2024 MD US Senate Election for the seat held by Ben Cardin if Ben Cardin retires.

Glenn Ivey has the experience of becoming US Senator. He worked on Capitol Hill during the 1990’s for Paul Sarbanes and Tom Daschle. Ivey was recently elected to the US House of Representative from MD-4(Prince George’s County) in 2024 but that should not prevent him from running. MD has elected 1 term US House members to the US Senate(Glenn Beall Jr. 1970). Ivey is a black man from Prince George’s County. Recently elected MD Governor Wes Moore and Recently elected MD Attorney General Anthony Brown are black males from Prince George’s County.
The other Prince George’s elected official interested in the 2024 MD US Senate Election is Angela Alsobrooks-the current Prince George’s County Executive. Alsobrooks played a major role in helping Wes Moore/Aruna Miller becoming Governor/Lt Governor,Anthony Brown becoming Attorney General and Brooke Lierman becoming Comptroller. Alsobrooks will be the 1st black female US Senator from MD.

Ivey should be the 2024 Democratic Nominee for the US Senate and Alsobrooks should be the Democratic nominee for Ivey’s US House seat to gain legislative experience for a future US Senate Election.

Ivey was elected and re-elected Prince George’s County State Attorney(position Alsobrooks has held before becoming Prince George’s County Executive) in 2002 and 2010. After Ivey left the Prince George’s County Attorney’s office, Ivey ran for the US House from MD-4 in 2012,2016 and 2022.

I hadn’t really paid much attention to him until the House hearing a few weeks back. He very calmly and simply explained things and handled the a-hole chair in the meeting without raising his voice (like Swallwell does at times). Liked what he said about how they should be concentrating on meaningful work like gun violence. Also was happy he stepped in to help out my young friend getting lamblasted by the NJ rep.
