Maryland police union endorses Wes Moore for governor

Democrat Wes Moore already had the support of the statewide teachers union in his quest to become Maryland governor, and now he has the backing of the police union as well. The Maryland State Fraternal Order of Police voted this week to endorse Moore for governor over Republican Dan Cox. Moore, who reached the rank of captain in the Army Reserves and did a tour of duty in Afghanistan, understands what it’s like to serve in uniform, said Sgt. Clyde Boatwright, a Baltimore schools police officer who is president of the state FOP.
