Democrat Angela Alsobrooks defeated former two-term Gov. Larry Hogan in their Maryland Senate race.
Newsmax called the race for Alsobrooks with 33% of precincts reporting and the county executive holding a double-digit-point lead.
She becomes the first Black senator from Maryland and among a handful of Black women ever elected to the upper chamber.
Alsobrooks wins the open seat created by the retirement of longtime Democrat Sen. Ben Cardin.
