Someone files papers for Dan Cox to run for Congress — but he says it wasn’t him

Former Del. Dan Cox, the 2022 Republican nominee for governor in Maryland, appears to have filed to run for Congress in the 6th District on Monday. But in a brief interview, Cox, who is contemplating the 6th District race to replace U.S. Rep. David Trone (D-6th), said it wasn’t him. Someone filed electronic paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Monday, entering Cox into the 6th District race.
