Hogan looks outside Md. for transportation secretary, turns to former rival for planning

Maryland Gov.-elect Larry Hogan is expected to pick a transportation secretary from out of state and name one of his Republican primary rivals as secretary of planning, according to several people familiar with the picks.

Hogan (R) will soon name Pete Rahn, who has held transportation posts in New Mexico and Missouri, as Maryland’s next transportation secretary, those familiar with the picks said. Hogan will name David R. Craig, the former Harford County executive, as planning secretary, they said.

The people spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss about appointments they are not authorized to announce.

Hogan, who takes office Jan. 21, was scheduled to hold a news conference at noon Tuesday to announce his latest Cabinet picks. The event was postponed due to the snowy weather.

Don't know David Craig but I know he will be better than Hall who we have been dealing with.
