Doug Gansler drops out of Maryland Democratic governor’s race as vote counts continue

Former Maryland Attorney General Doug Gansler on Thursday became the latest candidate to concede in the Democratic governor’s race. In a message to supporters posted on social media, Gansler said the results of the race “were personally very disappointing.” “For me, the outcome brings to a close 46 years in politics and elected office, though not my lifelong desire to serve others,” he said.
