The DNC congratulates Adrian Boafo on his victory in the Democratic primary for Maryland’s 5th Congressional District — a seat currently held by retiring Rep. Steny Hoyer. Democratic voters across Maryland turned out to back candidates like Boafo who are laser-focused on lowering costs, protecting healthcare, and creating good-paying jobs for Marylanders.
In response to Adrian Boafo’s victory, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
“Maryland voters turned out to elect strong Democratic leaders like Adrian Boafo, who will fight for working families and create a more affordable Maryland for everyone. He is a proven leader who shows up for his community, delivers real results, and stands up for what’s right. In Congress, he will join Democrats in the fight to lower costs, expand healthcare, and defend against Donald Trump and Republicans’ harmful attacks on Marylanders. The DNC is ready to help Adrian win this seat and improve the lives of everyday Marylanders.”
