2026 Senate Race: The Preseason Shade Has Begun
It’s not even 2026, but the Senate race is already hotter than a July day in Dupont Circle. Candidates in Maryland and Virginia are announcing their runs with platforms that range from AI-powered infrastructure to banning leaf blowers before 8 a.m.
According to https://www.politico.com/Politico, early contenders include a former cybersecurity exec, a climate activist, and one guy who swears he can fix Metro delays with blockchain. D.C. lobbyists are already booking brunch tables at Le Diplomate to discuss campaign donations and TikTok strategy.
In Maryland, one candidate is promising to make crab cakes the official state currency. In Virginia, another is proposing a bill to rename I-95 “The Eternal Parking Lot.”
“One candidate promised to fix traffic on I-66. The other promised to fix the candidate who promised to fix traffic.”
SEO Tip: Keywords like ‘2026 Senate race’, ‘Maryland politics’, and ‘DC lobbying’ are trending—use them wisely.
