马里兰州州长韦斯·摩尔（民主党人）在周二的辩论中，对于如果他在11月连任成功是否会完成整个任期这一问题，没有给出明确回答，据多家媒体报道。
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) did not give a clear answer during a Tuesday debate on if he would serve his full term if he were to be reelected in November, according to multiple reports.
《巴尔的摩旗帜报》报道称，当被问及如果他在秋季击败共和党人丹·考克斯，是否会坚持完成第二个任期的整个期限时，州长回避了这一问题。这一提问源于一些人视摩尔为2028年总统大选极具潜力的民主党竞争者。
The Baltimore Banner reported that the governor dodged a question on whether he would see through the entire duration of a second term should he beat Republican Dan Cox this fall. The line of questioning came as some look to Moore as a promising Democratic contender for the 2028 presidential race.
当被问及是否会继续担任州长四年时，据《旗帜报》报道，州长回答说：“担任马里兰州州长是我一生的荣誉。”他补充道：“如果我不对马里兰州人民承担承诺，我就不会竞选连任。”
When asked about staying in his role for another four years, the governor replied, “Being the governor of Maryland has been the honor of a lifetime,” the Banner reported. “And I would not be running for reelection if I was not committed to the people of Maryland,” he added.
随后摩尔被追问要求给出明确回答，他表示：“我已经回答了。我致力于服务马里兰州人民。这就是我竞选连任的原因。”
Moore was then pushed for a definitive answer, to which he said, “I gave the answer. I am committed to the people of Maryland. That’s why I am running for reelection.”
这位于2022年首次当选的马里兰州州长，此前曾否认有计划角逐2028年总统大选。去年他告诉NBC新闻：“我不会竞选总统。”当时他还断言，如果他重新赢得州长宝座，“我将完成整个任期。”
The Maryland governor, first elected in 2022, has denied he plans to pursue the presidency in 2028, telling NBC News last year that "I’m not running for president." He also asserted at the time that, should he reclaim the gubernatorial seat, "I’ll be serving a full term" In September 2025, Moore said he was “living the dream” as governor after announcing his reelection bid.
2024年9月，摩尔在宣布竞选连任后表示，他作为州长“正在圆梦”。这位民主党人在担任马里兰州最高行政长官期间，一直是特朗普总统的常态批评者。
The Democrat has been a frequent critic of President Trump throughout his tenure in Maryland's highest office.
摩尔当时在CNN艾琳·伯内特的《OutFront》节目中表示：“我对竞选连任感到兴奋。你知道，我简直就是一个由移民单亲妈妈抚养长大、11岁时曾被戴上手铐、如今却担任马里兰州第63任州长以及该州历史上首位黑人州长的人。”“我——我现在正在圆梦，我们州的情况很好。”他补充道。
“I’m excited about running for reelection. And, you know, I’m literally a person who was raised by an immigrant, single mom, who had handcuffs on my wrist when I was 11 years old, who’s now serving as the 63rd governor of my state and the first Black governor in the history of the state of Maryland,” Moore told CNN’s Erin Burnett on “OutFront” at the time. “I am — I am living the dream right now, and our state is doing well,” he added.
“能再次站在本州民众面前，我感到非常激动。”目前摩尔的连任前景较为乐观，因为在选举日不到一个月前，无党派选举分析机构库克政治报告已将这场竞选判定为民主党稳胜的局势。
“And I’m excited to go back in front of the people of my state.”Moore appears safe in his seat, as the nonpartisan election handicapper Cook Political Report rates his race as solidly Democratic less than a month before Election Day.
