Hogan Within Striking Distance in Maryland

A new Baltimore Sun poll in Maryland finds Anthony Brown (D) with a 7-point lead over Larry Hogan (R) in the race for governor, 49% to 42%.

Key finding: “Though Brown has a 7-point lead, the poll found his backers are less solid in their conviction than Hogan supporters. And many in Brown’s camp are younger voters, a bloc that historically is less likely to vote.”
