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. He was the unsuccessful Republican nominee in the 2022 Maryland gubernatorial election, which he lost in a landslide, and had been endorsed by Donald Trump. 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.
Cox is characterized as a right-wing extremist. An election denier, he has continuously espoused the disproven conspiracy theory that the 2020 U.S. presidential election was fraudulent.
