Delta Sigma Theta Soror Angela Alsobrooks Elected First Black Senator of Maryland
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. soror Angela Alsobrooks has made history by winning Maryland’s U.S. Senate race, defeating former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan. With this historic victory, Alsobrooks becomes the first Black woman to hold statewide office in Maryland and Maryland’s first Black senator.
Alsobrooks’ political career has been marked by a series of firsts and a steadfast commitment to public service. In 2010, she was elected as the state’s attorney for Prince George’s County, becoming both the youngest and the first woman to hold that office. Notably, her initial run for state’s attorney received support from Kamala Harris, who was at the time the Democratic nominee for Senate in California. After serving two terms as state’s attorney, Alsobrooks was elected as Prince George’s County Executive in 2018 and re-elected in 2022.
Alsobrooks is a Fall 1991 initiate of the Lambda Omega Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. at Duke University. She is a current member of the Prince George’s County Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
Her undergraduate chapter took to social media after the announcement that she had won and congratulated her.
Her victory marks a new chapter for Maryland and brings renewed hope and representation to the Senate, paving the way for further progress and inclusivity in American politics.
