In today’s Conversations with the Candidate, Delegate Harry Bhandari joins Midday to explain why he thinks he should represent Maryland's 2nd Congressional District. Bhandari has represented District 8, covering Baltimore County, as a Democrat in the state General Assembly since 2019. He was born in Nepal and emigrated to the United States in 2005. After losing a bid for the House of Delegates in 2014, he ran again and won in 2018, becoming the first Nepali American to win election to a state legislature in the country.
The U.S. House seat opened following Representative Dutch Ruppersberger's announcement in January that he would not seek reelection to represent the district.
