Wes Moore, the incoming governor of Maryland, an Army veteran and former nonprofit executive, is only the third Black person to be elected governor in US history
Wes Moore, the incoming governor of Maryland, reflected Sunday on the historic nature of his election as the state’s first Black chief executive. “It is remarkable,” the Democrat said in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Dana Bash, who pointed out that Maryland will also have a Black attorney general, treasurer and state House speaker. “I’m proud of the history that I’m going to make in this race of being the state’s first Black governor.
“I appreciate the fact that the governor … he was very against the MAGA movement from its inception – for years,” Moore told Bash. “He’s been calling the MAGA movement dangerous, which it is … and I thank him for that.” Moore also said he doesn’t foresee a White house bid anytime soon, instead throwing his support behind President Joe Biden in 2024. “I’m very excited for President Biden to run for reelection. We’re going to support him. I’m thankful for the amount of times he’s come to Maryland.
