Jan. 6 officer Harry Dunn loses House primary bid in Maryland

In a surprising turn, former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn fell short in his bid to succeed retiring Democratic Rep. Steny Hoyer, losing to Maryland state Del. Adrian Boafo in the House primary. Boafo, who previously served as Hoyer's campaign manager, secured 32% of the Democratic votes, while Dunn trailed with 13.5%. This outcome highlights the intense competition within Democratic primaries and the impact of party loyalty and campaign experience on electoral success.
