Wes Moore bids to become Maryland governor: ‘I’m running against an insurrectionist’

The 43-year-old military veteran is confident he can defeat Trumpist Dan Cox and become the state's first black governor

Wes Moore will in all likelihood be the next governor of Maryland. A month before election day, one poll gave him a 32-point lead over his Republican opponent, Dan Cox.

If successful, Moore will be the state's first Black governor - and only the third Black governor of any state. He stresses the need for bipartisan support in a time of divide.
