Maryland Democrats Clash Over Redistricting Strategies

Governor Wes Moore is considering a mid-cycle redistricting of Maryland's eight congressional districts, despite opposition from Senate President Bill Ferguson who warns it is too risky and could undermine democracy. The move is part of a broader national context where states are redrawing districts to favor their political parties, with Maryland potentially responding to Republican-led efforts by considering its own redistricting to ensure fair and competitive districts. The decision faces legislative hurdles and political debate about fairness and the impact on democracy.
