All characters can attempt to influence the state legislature by writing or even speaking with them in this thread.
Currently, Senator *Charles Carroll (F) is running for reelection unopposed.

Speaking before an impromptu gathering of state legislators as appropriate
Honorable gentlemen, that Senator Carroll is without any formalized opposition is a tribute to his ability to represent Maryland in the national capitol, just as he honorably represented us at the Continental Congress. His signature on the Declaration of Independence is a testimony to his fervent views. His opposition to the seizure of old Tory properties, while perhaps unpopular, demonstrate his principled fortitude and compassion and mercy. I beseech you all to cast your vote affirmatively for Senator Carroll as he will continue the good work of strengthening our maritime trade.

Gentlemen,
I know that you have received a number of letters asking for you to vote for a number of men in this Senatorial election. However, having made myself aware of the fine men who hold the public trust in your state, I think there is no man more deserving of the honor of United States Senator than Mr. James Brice.
I have great respect for Senator Charles Carroll and, I have no intention of impugning his character in any way. He has been a fine representative for your state and I in no way seek to impugn his good character or his long record of service – I only seek to suggest that you award a man of his character with a better office; give Senator Carroll time away from government to relax and recuperate, then make him Governor. Give him the highest honor you can as he is most deserving of it.
Mr. Brice, who recently served his second term as Mayor of Annapolis, is a fine young man with a great future ahead of him. He has served this state well, and I think he is just the man to represent your state in Washington. He has a long run of experience of treasurer of the city of Annapolis, making him just the man to tackle the financial issues that currently face our young nation. I have love for Senator Carroll, but again I urge you to make him Governor and make Brice your Senator.
- Speaker Pro Tempore G. Battle Hughes
