Republican Dan Cox conceded Wednesday in the race to succeed Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, saying in a statement that he called Democratic governor-elect Wes Moore and his running mate, Aruna Miller, and wished them well in their mission to “govern positively for all Marylanders.” “I will pray for them and their new role for all of us,” Cox said in the statement that also thanked former President Donald Trump for his support in the race and criticized Hogan.
