He became the first Republican to come out for the impeachment of President Nixon. He put aside party politics and his own personal considerations and stepped up to do the right thing for Maryland and the nation. </p><p>Today, Washington is completely broken because that kind of leadership and willingness to put country over party, has become far too rare. </p><p><b>Marylanders – you know me.</b> </p><p>For eight years, we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation need not divide our state. We overcame unprecedented challenges: cut taxes eight years in a row – balanced the budget – and created a record surplus. </p><p><b>And we did it all by finding common ground for the common good.</b> </p><p>Because Maryland is the state of middle temperament. </p><p>We believe in common decency and common sense. <b>Like most of you, I’m completely fed up with politics-as-usual and politicians in Washington who are more interested in arguing than getting anything done for the people.</b> </p><p><b>Enough is enough.</b> </p><p>We can do so much better, but not if we keep electing the same kind of typical partisan politicians. </p><p>Over eight years – just down the road from Washington – we have already shown a better path forward. </p><p>One party alone can’t fix it. </p><p>Let’s face it, we desperately need leadership willing to stand up to both parties. Leadership that appreciates that no one of us has all the answers or all the power. </p><p>This is not just about the differences between the right and the left. This is about the difference between right and wrong. </p><p>And this isn’t just the typical fight between Democrats and Republicans. </p><p><b>It’s more important than that. This is a fight for Maryland and America’s future, and that is a fight worth fighting.</b> </p><p>And that’s why I have made the decision to run for the United States Senate – not to serve one party – but to fix our nation’s broken politics and fight for Maryland. </p><p><b>It’s what I did as your governor, and it’s exactly how I’ll serve you in the United States Senate.</b> </p><p><b>Let’s get back to work.</b><sup id="cite_ref-quotedisclaimer_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-quotedisclaimer-10">[10]</a></sup> </p> </td> <td width="20" valign="bottom" style="border: none; color: #B2B7F2; font-size: 35px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: right; padding: 10px 1px;">” </td></tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" class="cquotecite" style="border: none; padding-right: 4%"><cite style="font-style: normal;font-size: smaller; float: right;">—Larry Hogan’s campaign website (2024)<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a></sup></cite> </td></tr></tbody></table> </div> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="2014_2">2014</span></h3> <p>Hogan's campaign website listed the following themes for the 2014 race: </p> <table data-nosnippet="" style="border-collapse: collapse; border: none;background-color: transparent; auto; ;"> <tbody><tr> <td width="20" valign="top" style="border:none; color:#B2B7F2;font-size:35px;font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: left; padding: 10px 3px;">“ </td> <td valign="top" style="border: none; padding: 4px 10px;"> <p>As Governor, Larry Hogan will: </p><p><b>Cut over $1,75 billion in waste, fraud, and abuse from state government</b><br /> </p><p>Our recent analysis of state and federal audits shows specific examples of waste, fraud, and abuse in state government that the current administration has refused to act on. These examples include the use of government credit cards on luxury items, personal use of state-owned vehicles, lack of fraud control in state agencies, widespread mismanagement, and more. The Hogan-Rutherford administration will implement the recommendations of past audits, conduct additional audits of every state agency, and immediately get to work eliminating duplication, fraud, and waste to make sure that every cent of taxpayer money is spent efficiently. </p><p><b>Roll back taxes without cutting government priorities</b><br /> </p><p>The $1.75 billion in waste and abuse that we have identified is unfortunately just the top of the iceberg. It is unconscionable that despite this excess money thrown around in state agencies, Maryland continues to operate on a $400 million structural deficit. By cutting the waste and abuse from state government, Larry Hogan will be able to save the taxpayers billions of dollars without having to cut priority programs and agencies, which will enable him to cut and eliminate the regressive taxes that have crushed middle class families and small businesses. </p><p><b>Change Maryland's reputation as a state that is unfriendly to job creators</b><br /> </p><p>Maryland's unemployment rate is about 75% higher today than it was when the recession began. In fact, the nonpartisan Tax Foundation ranked Maryland #41 in the nation for business climate. The main reason for this unfortunate reality is that it costs too much for job creators to stay in or come to Maryland. Larry Hogan will reduce the burden on job creators, open Maryland for business, and make our state more competitive with others in our region. In addition, the Hogan-Rutherford administration will overhaul the Department of Business and Economic Development to focus on aggressively attracting and retaining job creators in order to bring more and better-paying jobs to Maryland.<sup id="cite_ref-quotedisclaimer_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-quotedisclaimer-10">[10]</a></sup> </p> </td> <td width="20" valign="bottom" style="border: none; color: #B2B7F2; font-size: 35px; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold; text-align: right; padding: 10px 1px;">” </td></tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" class="cquotecite" style="border: none; padding-right: 4%"><cite style="font-style: normal;font-size: smaller; float: right;">—Larry Hogan's campaign website, (2014) <p><sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a></sup> </p> </cite></td></tr></tbody></table> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Presidential_preference">Presidential preference</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="2020">2020</span></h3> <dl><dd><dl><dd><i>See also: <a href="/Presidential_election_in_Maryland,_2020" title="Presidential election in Maryland, 2020">Presidential election in Maryland, 2020</a></i></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p>Gov.
