Maryland General Assembly advances redistricting amendmentLegislation setting redistricting standards in Maryland could land in court before it lands on a ballot for voters this fall. Wes Moore (D), a supporter of midcycle congressional redistricting, is scheduled to hold a bill signing ceremony anyway Wednesday. They also say the bill creates a scenario where future congressional redistricting maps could not be challenged in federal or most state courts. But Senate President Bill Ferguson (D-Baltimore City) said that’s “just patently not the case.” She said she believes there is strong evidence that rules for redistricting in the Maryland Constitution were intended only for General Assembly elections.
