Maryland Proposes New Congressional Map to Cut Lone GOP Seat

Maryland Proposes New Congressional Map to Cut Lone GOP Seat
Joseph Chalfant


Maryland is joining the coalition of Democrat-run states who are looking to redraw their congressional maps to cut Republicans out of office.

A new proposal was agreed to by the Maryland Governor's Redistricting Advisory Commission that would shift Maryland’s First Congressional District from a safe Republican seat to a safe Democrat seat, putting the state’s lone Republican Andy Harris in jeopardy during the midterm elections. The state legislature and governor will be required to approval the map to finalize the changes.

Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD), who serves as chair of the Commission, said the need to strip Republicans of their only federal representation in the state is due to threats of “fundamental voting rights protections.”

Five of the seven Maryland Supreme Court justices were appointed by Larry Hogan.  More likely than not, they would strike down any gerrymanders. 

Once Virginia is done, we may be nearing the end of the redistricting war.  Florida will try to redraw, but unless SCOFLA is corrupt, they will have to respect the Fair Districts Amendment.

Have fun with that.
