Baltimore’s First Female Sheriff

Sabrina Tapp-Harper is poised to become Baltimore’s first female sheriff, pulling ahead in a race marked by personal history and policy showdowns. Once a decorated cop with 26 years on the force, she’s now leading over incumbent Sam Cogen — who she previously sued for discrimination and who backed the mayor’s opponent. Despite Cogen’s cash and endorsements, Tapp-Harper won over police unions and built a nationally recognized domestic violence unit during her tenure. Meanwhile, other courthouse races saw incumbents cruising to reelection. Her historic win signals a major leadership shift — and the city is watching closely to see what changes she’ll bring.
