Jawando works to position himself as the progressive in Md.’s Senate race

In his bid for the U.S. Senate, Montgomery County Council member Will Jawando (D-At Large) openly acknowledges his fellow Democratic opponents have more money. But he argues that will not matter. He went into the home turf of one of those opponents, Prince George’s County Executive Angela D. Alsobrooks (D), on Wednesday to unveil his first wave of endorsements from four local officials in her jurisdiction. At the same time, he declared himself the most progressive candidate in the wide-open race to succeed retiring Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.) in 2024.
