Supports. The Maryland Governor's Office biography states Hogan was sworn in as the 62nd governor on January 21, 2015, and was re-elected in 2018.[1]
Supports. The NGA profile confirms Hogan's terms as governor from January 21, 2015 to January 18, 2023, and that he was re-elected in 2018.[3]
Supports. CBS News (2018) reported Hogan won Maryland's governor's race and became only the second Republican governor elected in Maryland in 50 years, following his 2014 upset.[2]
Supports. The Maryland Daily Record (2014) reports Hogan was elected governor in November 2014, defeating Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown.[4]
Context. The passage's point is that Republicans have won in Democratic-leaning states; the extracted claim simply states Hogan's election, which the sources confirm without distortion.
