Though Dunn’s national prominence and Capitol riot-centric message supercharged his congressional bid, he ultimately came up short.
Former Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn defended the Capitol Building on Jan. 6 and dreamed of returning four years later as a congressman. Tuesday, that dream crumbled when Dunn lost the Democratic nomination for a House seat in Maryland.
Dunn shot into the national spotlight after defending the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6 and brought media attention with him into an otherwise routine Democratic open seat primary. Though Dunn is not from the suburban Baltimore district he competed to represent, he raked in $3.75 million largely from grassroots donors supportive of the Capitol cop-turned-congressional hopeful.
Elfreth, the youngest woman to ever serve in the Maryland Senate, ran on a cookie cutter Democratic platform, highlighting abortion access, gun safety, and economic growth on the campaign trail. , a UDP spokesperson acknowledged Dunn’s “support for a strong US-Israel relationship” but suggested they had concerns about other anti-Israel candidates in the primary.
