Maryland Senator Gorman Eyes National Delegation
In Baltimore on Tuesday Senator Gorman said he has not discussed delegates for the national convention.

He would not commit to candidacy but hopes for a universally acceptable nominee. His strong national ties and lack of opposition bolster his convention prospects.
