Daniel Lewis Cox (born August 9, 1974) is an American politician and lawyer who was a Republican member of the Maryland House of Delegates representing the fourth district from 2019 to 2023.[1] He was the unsuccessful Republican nominee in the 2022 Maryland gubernatorial election,[2] which he lost in a landslide, and had been endorsed by former president Donald Trump.[3] In 2024, Cox unsuccessfully ran for the U.S. House of Representatives in Maryland's 6th congressional district, losing to former state delegate Neil Parrott in the Republican primary election.[4][5]
Cox is part of the far-right[6][7][8] and is an election denier, promoting the disproven conspiracy theory that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was marred by fraud.[2][9][10]
