Former Maryland state delegate Heather Mizeur, a Democrat, announced Thursday that she would seek her party s nomination to challenge Rep. Andy Harris in Maryland s 1st Congressional District, citing the Republican congressman s behavior in the aftermath of the assault on the Capitol.
Mizeur, who unsuccessfully ran for governor in 2014, said she had not been planning on seeking a seat in Congress before the Jan. 6 siege. But as a resident of the Eastern Shore, which makes up a wide swath of the state s deep-red 1st District, she said she felt compelled to offer voters an alternative.

Former Maryland state Del. Heather Mizeur on Friday said she is considering a run for Congressman Andy Harris’ seat for what she deemed his “resume of conduct unbecoming.”
“As you know, the events of January 6th made me consider a challenge to Congressman Andy Harris for his role in the treasonous insurrection against our government,” wrote Mizeur in a post she first posted first to a personal Facebook page on Thursday.
She later followed up with a longer, more detailed post to her professional page on Friday.
