Top news right now: Maryland's Sen. Ben Cardin, a longtime public servant and advocate for issues such as human rights, funding the Chesapeake Bay, and expanding Medicare coverage, has announced he will not run for reelection in 2024. This decision opens up a highly competitive Democratic primary for his Senate seat, with potential replacements including Angela Alsobrooks, David Trone, John Sarbanes, Jamie Raskin, and Will Jawando. Although Maryland is traditionally a blue state, this race could lead to multiple open House seats and has sparked Republican hopes of making gains in the state's political landscape. Cardin's retirement comes at a time when Democrats are facing a tough battle to hold on to control of the Senate in next year's elections. Follow Next News for more breaking news.
