John,
I’m running to become Maryland’s next Governor this November. And in a moment, I’m going to ask for your endorsement. But first, let me explain why.
When I was three years old, I watched my father die in our home from a rare but treatable virus. My mother was left to raise my sisters and me on her own. As a child, I faced my share of challenges and struggles. My life could have gone a different way.
But I was lucky. I had a mom who believed in me before I believed in myself. She pushed me to value education and see the incredible possibilities of this world. With her support, I’ve defied the odds to become a U.S. Army officer, a Rhodes Scholar, a small-business owner, an executive at one of the nation’s largest poverty-fighting organizations, and now, your official Democratic nominee for Governor.
I’m coming to you because I need your help to once again defy the odds:
I’m running for Governor of Maryland because I believe everyone deserves the same chance to succeed that I got. This people-powered movement empowered us to win the competitive Democratic primary in July, moving our campaign forward to the general election in November, in which I’ll face off against a Trump-endorsed, far-right Republican with extreme views.
This is our opportunity to flip Maryland blue for the first time in eight years, and a chance to move our state forward instead of backward. It’s going to take a groundswell of grassroots support to continue reaching voters between now and Election Day. Will you add your name to endorse me for Governor today?

Marylanders face a very clear choice this November.
A choice between unity and division. A choice between a future built on hope and optimism vs. the cynical politics of conspiracy theories and fear. A choice between the values we embrace as Marylanders and Donald Trump’s dark and dangerous MAGA movement.
When I led soldiers in combat in Afghanistan, we lived by a principle: leave no one behind.
It’s a value that I embraced in my work as CEO of one of the nation’s largest antipoverty organizations, where we brought leaders in government and in the private sector together to help people lift themselves out of poverty and into jobs you can raise a family with.
Leave no one behind.
The principle that drives this campaign — leave no one behind — is not a slogan. It’s personal. And it’s a value that will guide me as Governor of Maryland.
But I need your help to make it happen: please add your name to show your support for this campaign and create a state where we leave no Marylander behind.
Thank you for believing in me and a better Maryland for all of us.
Elevate,
Wes Moore
