Maryland attorney general primary: O’Malley, Brown spar over legal experience in new ‘dark money’ TV ad

Political animosity between U.S. Rep. Anthony Brown and retired judge Katie Curran O’Malley reached a new level Thursday with O’Malley calling Brown a hypocrite over a new TV attack ad airing in the state. The ad, from VoteVets Political Action Committee, accuses O’Malley of dismissing Brown’s experience as a lawyer. VoteVets is a political PAC supporting progressive candidates with military experience. “Anthony’s Brown’s new dark money attack ad trying to shame me for telling the truth is the ultimate hypocrisy,” O’Malley told The Baltimore Sun.
